Tasha sells gift boxes and cookies at her bakery. Gift boxes sell for $26.00 each. Cookies sell for $1.50 each. Tasha would like her total sales to be at least 50.00 from the sale of one gift box and some cookies. Which inequality describes the number of cookies (x) that Tasha needs to sell?

x ≥ 8


x ≥ 16


x ≥ 24

x=>16 becuase 50-26=24. and 1.5*16=24 so therefore 16 cookies would be sold to make the 50 dollars they want to reach.
