Jamie wants to work no more than 30 hours per week at his two part-time jobs. The first job pays him $14 per hour and the second
job pays him $16 per hour. He must earn more than $250 per week to pay all of his bills. Which inequality models this situation? A. x + y > 250; 14x + 16y ≤ 30
B. x + y < 30; 14x + 16y ≥ 250
C. x + y ≤ 30; 14x + 16y > 250
D. x + y ≥ 30; 14x + 16y < 250
Because the problem says he needs to earn MORE than 250 dollars a week, you need to have the greater than sign without the equal to underneath it. D is the only possible answer for this question for that reason.
