You have already saved $55. you can earn $9 per hour at your job. you are saving for a bicycle that costs $199. what inequality represents the possible numbers of hours you need to work to buy the bicycle?

y = 9x + 55 because the 9x is the amount you get paid an hour, and to get to the 199 you need to include to rate at which you get paid, and add that to how much you already have saved.

9x + 55

y=number hours you need to work

199-9y + 55= how much money you need

9y + 55 is how many hours you need to work.

hope it helps :)
