You are at a pear picking farm and they allow you to pick up to 50 pears a day. Today, you have already picked 14 pears. Which inequality below would represent how many pears you can still pick, p?
(A) p − 14 ≤ 50
(B) p − 14 ≥ 50
(C) p + 14 ≤ 50
(D) p + 14 ≥ 50

When you subtract 50 from 14 you get 36, so there are 36 pears left to pick. But they have to either be exactly 36 or less because it says that you can only pick up to 50 pears a day. And if you go over 50 then the equation wouldn't make sense.

Hope this helps you
