Ricky needs $45 to buy a jacket. He has saved $15 and plans to work as a babysitter to earn $5 per hour. Which inequality shows the minimum number of hours, n, that Ricky should work as a babysitter to earn enough to buy the jacket?

Select one:
a. 5n ≥ 45 + 15, so n ≥ 12
b. 5n ≤ 45 + 15, so n ≤ 12
c. 15 + 5n ≥ 45, so n ≥ 6
d. 15 + 5n ≤ 45, so n ≤ 6

Answer:

c. 15 + 5n ≥ 45, so n ≥ 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct option is c. 15 + 5n ≥ 45, so n ≥ 6

Given that,

  • Ricky needs $45 to buy a jacket. He has saved $15 and plans to work as a babysitter to earn $5 per hour.
  • Here n be the number of hours.

Based on the above information, the equation is as follows:

= 15 +  5n ≥ 45

n ≥ 6
