Question

A painter earns 15$ per hour. What is the minimum number of hours he must work to earn at least 200$. Write an inequality to represent this station and solve.

Answer 1

Answer:  13 hours 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

15x ≥ 200

$\frac{15x}{15} \geq \frac{200}{15}$

 $x \geq \frac{200}{15}$

 $x \geq 13\frac{2}{3}$
