550 < or = 200 + 7n
Not too sure how else to explain this other than to read the situation. 550 is the minimal amount required per month. We know that 200 comes in from teh scholarship and she gets $7 per hour.

550 - 200 = n(7.00)
350 = 7n
350/7 = n
n = 50

550 < 200 + 7x
350 < 7x
50 < x
I would not want to work 50 hours a week, Carmen's life sucks, get a student loan!

Write the equation of the line that's parallel to y+5= 2x for the time of the component (-3, -2). parallel strains have equivalent slopes y = 2x -5 (has slope = 2) a parallel line to y =2x -5 is y -y1 = 2(x -x1) the place x1 = -3 and y1 =-2 y +2 = 2(x +3) y = 2x +4
