Alicia cashed her paycheck and used half her earnings to take three friends to dinner. She spent $42.15 on dinner and she brought home more than $20.00. Write an inequality to represent the situation, using x to represent the amount of Alicia's paycheck.
If she spent $42.15 on dinner it does not matter that this is half. The equation should be: x-42.15\(\geq\)20 I hope that this is the answer that you are looking for.
