Question

A band will sell CD's of their music at their concert for $5.00 each. The band ordered 300 CD's at a cost of $1.25 each. Which inequality represents the number of CD's, n, the band needs to sell to make a profit of at least $500?

Answer 1

175

Explanation:

The way you find this is by multiplying 300 by 1.25 to see how much they spent which is 375 dollars. Then you add that too 500 because they want to make at least 500 dollars of profit and you need to add it because you have to make up for the money spent to make a profit. then divided 875 the total of amount they need to make by 5 dollars because thats how much they cost and you get 175
