Given :
Ryan works two jobs. He earns $10 per hour working at the hardware store, and he earns $13 per hour working at the shipping.
To Find :
If x represents hours at the hardware store and y represents hours at the shipping company, which inequality represents the situation if Ryan wants to earn a minimum of $300.
Solution :
His total earning is given by :
T = 10( number of hours at hardware store ) + 13( number of hours at the shipping)
T = 10x + 13y
Now, he wants to earn a minimum of $300 i.e T ≥ $300.
So, 10x + 13y ≥ 300
Hence, this is the required solution.
