Question

You need at least $60 to buy a new video game. You have saved $25. Which inequality models how much more you must save?

Answer 1

Answer: x ≥ 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the money we must save .

We are given that we need at least $60 to buy a new video game.

We already have saved $25.

Then , the amount of money we must save + Money we have saved ≥ $60

i.e. x+25 ≥ 60

Subtract 25 from both sides , we get

x ≥ 35

Hence, the  inequality models how much more you must save:

x ≥ 35

Answer 2

So we know that you need $35 more, to afford the video game. (60-25=35) 

I am going to assume that $35 would take place for N, I don't know what topic you may be working on so I am going to go with a brain kinda question. 

I would also double check with someone else, I may be wrong and I wouldn't want  you to fail! 

So we can work on question A first (reminding you were are assuming $35 is taking place for N):

35+25<60

We know that 35+25 would be 60, so if this was the correct option, it would be equal to. 

B: 35-25>60

Yes, 60 would be greater but its not really explaining how much more money you would need. 

C: 

Again like A, it would be equal to. But the thing that caught off guard about this question was, yes you would need 35+25 to get to 60. But is that what it really means?

D. 60 + 25 < 35

Yes it is true that 60 + 25 is greater than 35, but I feel like it means you already have that $60 which isnt true. 

From what I believe, I believe your answer would be C. But to be sure I would check with someone else! Hope I helped!
