Question

The following situation applies to questions 2-5.
Lincoln Middle School plans to collect more than 2,000 cans of food in a food drive. So far, 668 cans have been collected. Write and solve an inequality to
find numbers of cans the school can collect on each of the final 7 days of the drive to meet this goal.
Which two-step inequality represents this situation?
7 + 668 > 2000
7c + 668 < 2000
O +668 > 2000
70 +668 > 2000

Answer 1

Answer:

7c + 668 > 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Target = more than. 2000 food cans

Amount already collected = 668 food cans

Food can remaining to collect per day within 7 days = 2000 - 668

Let number of cans left to collect per day with 7 days = c

7 * c + cans already collected > target

7c + 668 > 2000
