Answer:

(9x + 15) ≥ 110

Explanation:

Serena makes $9 per hour cutting lawns.

Each day she earns about $15 in tips.

If Serena made no less than $110 on Monday then we have to write the inequality.

Let Serena works for x hours on Monday.

then total earning 9x

If we include the tips then earning = (9x + 15)

This total is no less then $110

Then inequality will be (9x + 15) ≥ 110
