\n" );
document.write( "Hi
\n" );
document.write( "Let x represent the number of at-bats nora needs to reach her goal
\n" );
document.write( "think You had the right idea, however, You need to Set it up like a word problem
\n" );
document.write( " 125 +x ≥ 140   |key words were 'at least' 140, therefore the ≥ sign
\n" );
document.write( "Solving for x
\n" );
document.write( "    x ≥ 15, the number of at-bats nora needs to reach her goal
\n" );
document.write( " \n" );
document.write( "
