Gavin needs $80 to buy a fish tank. He has saved $8 and plans to work as a babysitter to earn $9 per hour. Which inequality shows the minimum number of hours, n, that Gavin should work as a babysitter to earn enough to buy the fish tank?
8 + 9n ≥ 80, so n ≥ 8
8 + 9n ≤ 80, so n ≤ 8
9n ≥ 80 + 8, so n ≥ 9.8
9n < 80 + 8. so n < 9.8

so the answer would be 8+9n≥80. The reason why is because he has $80 and he saved $8 and he earned $9 for each hour but we do not know how many hours so that is why it is n. and it says minimum so u might think that it might be ≤ but my sister says to think the opposite so the symbol will be ≥.

Hope this helps ^_^

the transverse axis of a hyperbola is the line that contains the two vertices and the two focuses.

in this example (hyperbola of equation x^2/2 - y^2/4 = 1), the transverse axis is the  x-axis  .
