Student council is renting a tent for $350 for an upcoming student fair. Each student attending the fair will pay $0.50. All other attendees will pay $2.25 each. If 200 students attend the fair, which inequality can be used to determine the number of "other" attendees, a, needed to cover the cost of the tent?

You will need 100 or more other attendees to cover the cost I think

Step-by-step explanation
200x0.50=$100
350-100=250
250/2.5=100
