Mr. roberts is going shopping. he has a budget of $150.00. he will buy either a painting or a lamp. if he spends 80% of his money on a painting, how much money will mr. robert's spend?

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
