Write an inequality to determine the number of chores,c, janie must do this week to earn enough money to buy a cd

13 = 2c + 3 is the inequality for one week

calculista

Let

c-------> the number of chores

we know that

\(3+2c \geq 13\) --------> inequality

Solve for c

\(3+2c \geq 13\\2c \geq 13-3\\ 2c\geq10 \\ c\geq5\)

therefore

the answer is

The minimum number of chores that Janie must do is \(5\ chores\)
