Question

The members of the French club are sponsoring a bake sale. If their goal is to raise at least $305, how many pastries must they sell at $3.55 each in order to meet the goal? Write and solve an inequality.

Answer 1

Very EASY PEASY!

Explanation:

First we, set up an equation!

`3.55x=305\\x=(305)/(3.55) \\x= About 86`

So there you go!

They have to sell 86 pastries in order to meet the goal!

EDIT: Sorry you wanted inequality?

Here you go!

`3.55x\geq 305\\x\geq 85.915...\\`

So there cannot be a fraction of a pastry sold, so:

`x\geq 86`

Hope this helps!

P.S. Stay Safe!
