Question

Rosa loves to run. She set a goal to run greater than 490 miles this year. To date, she has run 145 miles. If she begins to run 15 miles per week, how long will it take Rosa to reach her goal?
Write an inequality, using x as the variable, that represents this situation.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

145+15x>490. subtract 145 from both sides

15x>345, divide both sides by 15

x>23

So she will need to run for more than 23 weeks to reach her goal.
