Solve Applications with Linear Inequalities · Exercise 29
Find your last month’s phone bill and the hourly salary you are paid at your job. (If you do not have a job, use the hourly salary you would realistically be paid if you had a job.) Calculate the number of hours of work it would take you to earn at least enough money to pay your phone bill by writing an appropriate inequality and then solving it.
This is an open-ended exercise: its source gives no single answer.
