Maya needs $58 to go on a field trip. she has saved $18.50. she earns $6.50 per hour cleaning her neighbor's garden, and she earns $5.25 per hour selling cakes at a store. can maya go on the field trip if she works at the garden for 3 hours and at the store for 4 hours?

[use the inequality 6.50x + 5.25y + 18.50 ≥ 58]
yes, because the total will be $62
yes, because the total will be $59
no, because the total will be $52
no, because the total will be $49

It is given that:

Maya needs $58 to go on a field trip.

Also,

and she worked at the garden for 3 hours.

This means that the money she earned for working at garden is: $ (6.50×3)

                                                                   = $ 19.5

She worked there for 4 hours.

This means that the amount she earned at a store= $ (5.25×4)

                                                                                  = $ 21

Total amount=Amount she has saved+Amount she earned by working at garden+Amount she earned at the store

i.e.

Total amount= 18.50+19.5+21

i.e.

Total amount=$ 59
