The cost of a car is supposed to be no more than 80% of the value for the next year's model. If a car costs $14,000, what is the cost of the next year's model?

x ≥ $17, 500

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost of the next year model, we will follow the steps below;

Let x be the value of next year's model

$14000 ≤ 80% of  x

80% of  x ≥  $14000

80% × x ≥$14000

80x/100    ≥  $14000

multiply both-side of the equation by 100

80x ≥  $1400000

Divide both-side of the inequality by 80

80x /80 ≥ $1400000 / 80

x ≥ $17, 500

Therefore the cost of next year's model is

x≥$17, 500
