C.Daniel has a $50 Dunkin Donuts™ gift card and spends $3.50 a day. David has a $100 gift card and spends $6 a day. What is x, the number of days that need to pass for Daniel to have more money on his gift card than David? D. Daniel has a $50 Dunkin Donuts™ gift card and spends $3.50 a day.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: inequality is $50-3.50x>100-6x$

To find: situation that can be represented by the given inequality

Solution:

Cost of Dunkin Donuts gift card with Daniel = $50

Amount spent by Daniel per day = $3.50

Cost of Dunkin Donuts gift card with David = $100

Amount spent by David per day = $6

Amount left with Daniel after x days = $\ (50-3.50x)$

Amount left with David after x days = $\ (100-6x)$

According to question,

Amount left with Daniel after x days > Amount left with David after x days

$50-3.50x>100-6x$

So, he inequality that satisfies the situation is $50-3.50x>100-6x$

Option C is correct
