Question

Tonisha has a lemonade stand. She has $31 in expenses and wants to make $69 per day. If X represents the amount of revenue from selling lemonade,an inequality to represent the amount of revenue she would need to generate would be:_____? Tonisha needs to sell how much each day?

Answer 1

x - 31
`\geq` 69

Tonisha has to make at least $100 in revenue

Explanation:

Set up the inequality:

x - 31 represents her profit

Since she wants to make at least $69 a day, use
`\geq` 69

So, the inequality is x - 31
`\geq` 69

Then, solve for x to find how much she has to sell:

x - 31
`\geq` 69

x
`\geq` 100

So, Tonisha has to make at least $100 in revenue
