If the width of a rectangular piece of wood is x + 2 inches long and the length is three times as long with an additional inch added, what is the area of the wood?
a. 3x² + 12x + 12
b. 3x² + 12x + 14
c. 3x² – 13x + 14
d. 3x² + 13x + 14

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
