Caroline works as a barista at Starbucks that pays $11 per hour. She needs to have $84 to cover her weekly
expenses and she already has $5 saved. The inequality 11x +52>=84 represents this situation
Which solution does NOT make sense in the context of the problem and why?
A)
0 because you can't work zero hours
B)
11 because that's how much she makes per hour
C)
60 because that is too many hours to work
D)
-5 because you can't work negative hours

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the equation:

[tex]11x + 5 > 84[/tex]

The above inequality shows that Caroline is paid $11 per hour where x is the number of hours she works, she already had $5 saved and she needs to have $84 to cover her weekly- expenses.

Now, we have to tell which solution cannot be a solution to the given inequality.

Option D)

x = -5 cannot be a solution to the given inequality because since x are the number of hours and hours can never be negative. They may have a positive value or x maybe equal to zero.
