Question

Shiloh has a earn at least $200 to meet her fundraising goal. She has only 100 cakes that she plans to sell at 5 dollars each. Which inequality shows the number of cakes x, Shiloh can sell to meet her goal

Answer 1

5x > = 200.....x < =  100
x > = 200/5
x > = 40...she would have to sell at least 40 cakes to reach her goal

Answer 2

Answer:

40 ≤ x ≤ 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Shiloh has a earn at least $200 to meet her fundraising goal.

She has only 100 cakes that she plans to sell at 5 dollars each.

Let x be the number of cakes sold.

$5x\geq 200$

$x\geq 40$

Means she has to sell at least 40 cakes to make $200. And there are 100 cakes maximum.

Hence, the inequality here becomes: 40 ≤ x ≤ 100
