Hiro works two part time jobs in order to earn enough money to meet her obligations of at least $450 a week. Her job at the mall pays $10 an hour and her administrative assistant job on campus pays $15 an hour. How many hours does Hiro need to work at each job to earn at least $450?

Let x be the number of hours she works at the mall and let y be the number of hours she works as administrative assistant. Write an inequality that would model this situation.
Graph the inequality .
Find three ordered pairs(x,y)(x,y) that would be solutions to the inequality. Then explain what that means for Hiro.
