C

Step-by-step explanation:

55$ x 40% (rewritten) 55 x .4 = 22

since its 40% OFF you take 55 - 22 = 33

Then take the 33$ x 6% (rewritten)

33 x .06 = 1.98

Then take 33 and add the 6% sales tax

33 + 1.98 = 34.98

the inequality is:

250c+180g≥950

step-by-step explanation:

let c denotes the number of days in a week   miyoko worked as a cryptographer.

and g denotes the number of days in a week she works as a geologist.

now we are given that she earns $250 for every day she works as a cryptographer,and earns $180 for every day she works as a geologist.

now miyoko's goal is to earn more than $950 this week.

hence, the inequality could be represented as:

250c+180g≥950
