Question

Jennifer has at least $34 more than triple the amount that Matthew has. If Matthew has $2, write an
inequality that represents the amount that Jennifer has, and graph the solution.

Answer 1

Answer:

$x\geq \ 40$

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> represents the amount that Jennifer has

y ----> represents the amount that Matthew has

we know that

The amount that Jennifer has is greater than or equal to $34 plus three times the samount that Matthew has

The inequality that represent this situation is

$x\geq 3y+34$

we have

$y=\ 2$

substitute

$x\geq 3(2)+34$

$x\geq \ 40$

The solution is the interval [40,∞)

In a number line the solution is the shaded area at right of x=40 (closed point)

see the graph attached

Answer 2

Inequality representing amount owed by Jennifer : x > 40

Important Information : Amount owed by Mathew =  $2

Amount owed by Jennifer = at least 34 more than triple amount owed by Mathew

• Let the amount owed by Jennifer = x

So, x > 3 (2) + 34

x > 34 + 6

x > 40
