Answer:

The solution for the inequality is x = (7.5,∞).

Mel needs to work more than 7.5 hours to buy a pair of shoes that costs $120.

Step-by-step explanation:

10x + 45 > 120 //substract 45 in both sides of the inequality.

10x + 45 - 45 > 120 - 45

10x > 75

(10/10)x > 75/10 //divide by 10 both sides of the inequality.

x > 7.5
