Let x represent the amount that she needs to save each month for the next year.
Stephanie is saving money to buy a new computer. So far she has saved $200. This means that the total amount that she would have saved in y months is
200 + xy
Since there are 12 months in a year,
an inequality to show how much she needs to save each month for the next year so she has at least $1200 to spend on the computer is
200 + 12x ≥ 1200
12x ≥ 1200 - 200
12x ≥ 1000
x ≥ 1000/12
x ≥ 83.33
