Question

Shiloh has to earn at least $200 to meet her fundraising goal. She has only 100 cakes that she plans to sell at 5 dollars each. Which inequality shows the number of cakes, x, Shiloh can sell to meet her goal? 20 ≤ x ≤ 200 40 ≤ x ≤ 100 100 ≤ x ≤ 200 20 ≤ x ≤ 100

Answer 1

Hi!

First, find the least amount of cakes she has to sell.

200/5 = 40

40 is the least amount of cakes she can sell.
100 is the most amount of cakes she can sell.

So the inequality is 40 ≤ x ≤ 100

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

Answer: inequality is 40 ≤ x ≤ 100.

Explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem we have to analyze the information given:

• Number of cakes available: 100

• Price of each cake: $5

First, we have to calculate the least number of cakes that Shiloh has to sell to obtain $200:

• 200 / 5 = 40

And, the maximum number of cakes that she can sell is 100.

• So, inequality is 40 ≤ x ≤ 100.
