Answer:
$425 + $220 ≥ p or $645 ≥ p
Step-by-step explanation:
What we are given
- Micah saved $425 for a new bicycle
- His grandfather will give him $220 to help pay for the bicycle
Given this we are asked to create an inequality to find p, the price of the bicycle that Micah can afford.
If p is the price of the bicycle, we know Micah can only spend as much money as he has. (so the inequality will face the amount of money he has , not p, the price of the bike.)
Thus, the inequality that would best represent this situation would be
$425 + $220 ≥ p or the simplified version $645 ≥ p
