Question

Jinny is selling bracelets for $4.50. So far, she has earned $315.00. She needs to earn more than $459.00 in order to meet her goal. How many more bracelets, x, does she need to sell in order to reach her goal? Select the inequality that includes the fewest number of bracelets that she can sell and still reach her goal. A. x > 70 B. x > 32 C. x > 172 D. x > 102

Answer 1

Answer: The answer would be D which is 102

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, if you divide $315.00 by $4.50 you get 70. That would be correct if she needed to earn exactly $315.00 but she needs to reach her goal of $459.00. So $459.00 divided by $4.50 is equal to 102. 102 is the fewest number of bracelets she can sell and still reach her goal.
