Answer 1

Answer:

The inequality to solve the question is;

$12+6.25x\ge15+5.50x$

Explanation:

Let x represent the number of hours.

Given;

Deborah charges $15 plus I $5.50 per hour

$15+5.50x$

Aiden charges $12 plus $6.25 per hour to mow lawns

$12+6.25x$

The situation for Aiden's charge to be greater than or equal to Deborah's charge is given as;

$12+6.25x\ge15+5.50x$

Therefore, the inequality to solve the question is;

$12+6.25x\ge15+5.50x$
