"Since the ratio is 5:7 you can think in total there was 12 equal blocks of money invested. 5 of those blocks belonged to Jim and 7 of those blocks belonged to Gail. Since they invested $3,600 and then made $6,450 in total there is $10,050. Divide that total into 12 equal blocks of $837.50 and 5 of those blocks belong to Jim. So he will get $4,187.50"

The inequality is:
x + $488.04 ≥ $500
And the solution is
x ≥ $11.96
<h3>How to write and solve the inequality?</h3>
First, let's define x as the amount that she needs to deposit.
Now, we know that at the moment Evely has $638.54 in her bank account. Then she pays for $638.54, then she writes a check for $159.50, then we need to subtract that:
$638.54 - $159.50 = $488.04
Now she needs to deposit an amount x, such that her balance is at least $500, then we can write the inequality:
x + $488.04 ≥ $500
Solving that for x, we get:
x ≥ $500 - $488.04 = $11.96
She needs to deposit at least $11.96.
