Question

suppose you had d dollars in your bank account. you spent $22 but you have at least $28 left. how much money did you have initially? write and solve an inequality that represents this situation.

please help!!! I have to turn this in soon.

Answer 1

Answer:

$d-22\geq 28$

$d\geq 50$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d dollars be the initial amount in your bank account.

We have been given that you spent $22, so the amount left after spending $22 will be: $d-22$.

We are also told that after spending $22, you have at least $28. This means that the amount left after spending $22 will be greater than or equal to $28.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

$d-22\geq 28$

Therefore, the inequality $d-22\geq 28$ represents the initial amount of money you had.

Now let us solve for d by adding 22 to both sides of our inequality.

$d-22+22\geq 28+22$

$d\geq 50$

Therefore, initially you had at least $50.

Answer 2

Answer:

d – 22 ≥ 28;d ≥ 50
