Question

The Booster Club has a goal of raising at least $700. The Club has already raised $50. The Booster Club is sponsoring a pancake breakfast and charging $8.00 per ticket. What inequality would represent the number of tickets (t) that the Booster Club must sell to meet its goal?

    ≥700

Answer 1

50 + 8x >= 700

8x >= (700 - 50) = 650

8x >= 650

x >= 650/8

x >= 81.25

81 tickets is not enough. Therefore 82 tickets is the minimum needed to break $700. Now the question for you is how to check if this answer is correct...
