Valeria has a points card for a movie theater.
She receives 35 rewards points just for signing up.
She earns 11.5 points for each visit to the movie theater.
She needs at least 55 points for a free movie ticket.
Which inequality can be used to determine
v, the minimum number of visits Valeria needs to earn her first free movie ticket?
35 + 11.5v ≥ 55
To determine the minimum number of visits Valeria needs to earn her first free movie ticket, we can set up an inequality.
Let v be the number of visits Valeria needs to earn her first free movie ticket.
The total number of points she earns is given by:
35 (points for signing up) + 11.5v (points for each visit)
Since she needs at least 55 points for a free movie ticket, the inequality can be written as:
35 + 11.5v ≥ 55
So, the inequality that can be used to determine v is:
35 + 11.5v ≥ 55
