This is the first box only Giving 15-20 points!!!

5000 ≥ 2000 + 50a

Step-by-step explanation:

She wants to save at least $5000 for college. The saving account set up by her parents already contains $2000 . This means she has more $3000 to save to meet her minimum target. Each month she saves $50 into the account.

Let

number of month = a

The information can be expressed as follows

5000 ≥ 2000 + 50a

The savings will continue increasing every months because she always deposit $50 every month.

Using the expression

5000 ≥ 2000 + 50a

minus 2000 from both sides

3000 ≥ 50a

divide both sides by 50

3000/50 ≥ a

60 ≥ a

This means she needs at least 60 months to meet her savings/target.
