Question

Trevor is swimming laps to raise money for the local food bank. He earns $1.85 per lap and has already swum 23 laps.

• Write an inequality to show how many more laps Trevor needs to swim in order to raise more than $100.

Answer 1

1.85x-42.55>100 is the inequality. 42.55 is the amount already raised, 1.85x is number of laps times the money raised by them.
