To help figure this out, you can solve the inequality 4x + 53 > 69.
First, subtract 53 from both sides of the inequality to isolate the term with x:
4x + 53 - 53 > 69 - 53
4x > 16
Then, divide both sides of the inequality by 4 to solve for x:
4x/4 > 16/4
x > 4
Therefore, Helena needs to babysit more than 4 kids in order to make at least $69.
