month. Based on the inequality below, if she wants to profit at least $1,240, how much should she charge, b, per bracelet?

B. Priya needs to charge at least $22 per bracelet.
C. Priya needs to charge at most $22 per bracelet
D. Priya needs to charge at most $29 per bracelet.

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

Profit = total revenue - total cost

total revenue = 80 x b

total cost = 520

the profit has to be at least $1240

80 x 22 = 1760

1760 - 520 = 1240

b is correct
