Answer

Each student must raise more than 14.9 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation

The entire sixth grade class need to raise 447 dollars.

There are 30 students in the class.

Each student needs to raise at least m dollars.

The inequality describing this scenario is thus

30m > 447

Divide both sides by 30

(30m/30) > (447/30)

m > 14.9

Hope this Helps!!!
