Pine Bluff Middle School is having its annual Spring Fling dance, which will cost $400. The student treasurer reported that the dance fund has $75 left over from last year. Each ticket to the dance costs $4.

Let t represent the number of tickets sold. Write an inequality to determine how many tickets must be sold to pay for this year's dance.

What is the minimum whole number of tickets that must be sold to fund the dance?
