Final answer:
The student must form a linear inequality to represent the minimum sales target from selling croissants and loaves of French bread for a fundraising event. The general inequality is Pc × Qc + Pb × Qb ≥ Goal, where P and Q represent the price and quantity of the items.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student's question involves writing a linear inequality to represent a sales goal for a fundraising event. Although the question is missing specific values, the general form of the equation would be:
P
c
× Q
c
+ P
b
× Q
b
≥ Goal
Where:
- Pc is the price of one croissant.
- Qc is the quantity of croissants sold.
- Pb is the price of one loaf of French bread.
- Qb is the quantity of French bread sold.
- “Goal” is the minimum amount of money needed to fund the festival.
The inequality shows that the total revenue from selling croissants and loaves of French bread must be at least equal to the fundraising goal.
To graph the solutions, we would need specific values for the prices and the goal. However, the graph would typically show a region where every point (Qc, Qb) within or on the boundary line represents a combination of croissants and French bread that meet or exceed the fundraising goal.
