please help!!! I have to turn this in soon.

Verified Answer :

Answer:

\(d-22\geq 28\)

\(d\geq 50\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d dollars be the initial amount in your bank account.

We have been given that you spent $22, so the amount left after spending $22 will be: \(d-22\).

We are also told that after spending $22, you have at least $28. This means that the amount left after spending $22 will be greater than or equal to $28.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

\(d-22\geq 28\)

Therefore, the inequality \(d-22\geq 28\) represents the initial amount of money you had.

Now let us solve for d by adding 22 to both sides of our inequality.

\(d-22+22\geq 28+22\)

\(d\geq 50\)

Therefore, initially you had at least $50.
