Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Let x be the amount of money Kris needs to earn each weekend.

The total amount of money Kris needs to earn for the 8 weekends is 8x.

The inequality for the amount of money Kris needs to earn each weekend is 8x ≥ 1625.

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the inequality by 8:

x ≥ 1625/8

x ≥ 203.125

The best interpretation in the context of the problem is:
Kris needs to earn at least $203.13 each weekend to meet her goal.
