Answer:

[tex]\$10x + \$94\geq\ \$194[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Wage = $10 per hour

Savings = $94

Stereo = $194

Required

Represent the scenario using an inequality

From the question, x represents the number of hours.

If his wage is $10 per hour then, his wage is $10x in x hours

Solving further;

For George to afford the stereo, the sum of his wages and savings must be greater than or equal to the cost of the stereo

Mathematically, this is:

[tex]Wages + Savings \geq\ Stereo[/tex]

Substitute right values for the above expression

[tex]\$10x + \$94\geq\ \$194[/tex]

The options are not well presented, hwever the solution is [tex]\$10x + \$94\geq\ \$194[/tex]
