Answer:

B.  x + 10 ≥ 70;  x ≥ $60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • x = money (in dollars) Kelvin needs to withdraw from the bank.
  • $10 = money Kelvin currently has.
  • $70 = the least amount of cash Kelvin wants to have in his wallet.

The equation that models the given parameters is:

  • [tex]x + 10 \geq 70[/tex]

To solve for x, subtract 10 from both sides of the equation:

[tex]\implies x+10-10 \geq 70-10[/tex]

[tex]\implies x \geq 60[/tex]

Therefore, Kelvin needs to withdraw at least $60 from the bank.
