problem_activity: Task
Jonathan wants to save up enough money so that he can buy a new sports equipment set that includes a football, baseball, soccer ball, and basketball. This complete boxed set costs \$50. Jonathan has \$15 he saved from his birthday. In order to make more money, he plans to wash neighbors’ windows. He plans to charge \$3 for each window he washes, and any extra money he makes beyond \$50 he can use to buy the additional accessories that go with the sports box set.
Write and solve an inequality that represents the number of windows Jonathan can wash in order to save at least the minimum amount he needs to buy the boxed set. Graph the solutions on the number line. What is a realistic number of windows for Jonathan to wash? How would that be reflected in the graph?
