Answer of the question:

When Possible, write and solve an inequality:

Answer 1

For Madison to "have at least $55" after 4 weeks, [let X be the amount she must save per week], she must save:

        4X ≥ $55       [    (4 weeks)*($X/week) lets weeks cancel out, leaving $   ]

         X ≥  $13.75/week           (divide both sides by 4 does not change inequality, since 4 is positive)

Answer 2

She must save $55 in 4 weeks

 

x= 55/4

 

55 divided by 4 is 13.75

 

She must save $13.75 each week.
