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.

Each ticket = 4t
75 left over
Must be equal to or greater than 400

The inequality would be
4t + 75 ≥ 400
