Write the verbal sentence as an inequality. Then solve the ineqaulity
You have two summer jobs. In the first job,you work 25 hours per week and earn $9 per hour. In the second job, you can work as many hours as you want per week,at least how many hours per week must you work at the second job?
-----------
In the 1st job you earn 25*9 = $225 per week.
In the 2nd job you work "x" hours and earn "y" dollars per hour.
------------------
Your total earnings are 225 + xy dollars.

Comment:
"at least how many hours per week must you work at the second job?"
You are not told how many hours are worked, the pay rate, or the
earning goal, so you can't answer the last question.
