Question

HELP PLEASE

If X represents the number of pictures, write an equality to represent the situation!

Answer 1

The Drama Club needs to sell more than 3 pictures to make a profit.

The inequality 10x ≥ 2.55x +25 represents the situation.

Explanation:

Given that:

Rent for lighting equipment = $25

Price per print = $2.55

Selling price of one picture = $10

x be the number of pictures.

Selling price * No. of pictures sold ≥ Price of per print * pictures printed + rent

10x ≥ 2.55x +25

10x-2.55x≥25

7.45x≥25

Dividing both sides by 7.45

`(7.45x)/(7.45)\geq (25)/(7.45)\\x\geq 3.35`

Hence,

The Drama Club needs to sell more than 3 pictures to make a profit.

The inequality 10x ≥ 2.55x +25 represents the situation.
