Nicole will spend more than $30 on gifts. So far, she has spent $17 . What are the possible additional amounts she will spend? Use c for the additional amount (in dollars) Nicole will spend. Write your answer as an inequality solved for c

Respuesta :

Nicole has already spent 17 dollars, and will spend c more dollars, for a total of [tex] 17+c [/tex] dollars.

We want this total to be more than 30, so we have

[tex] 17+c>30 [/tex]

Solving this inequality for c yields

[tex] c > 13 [/tex]
