the Spanish club is selling churros as a fundraiser. If its goal is to raise at least $150, how many churros must it sell at $1.25 each to meet that goal? write and solve an inequality.

Respuesta :

Let the number of churros sold be x, then
1.25x ≥ 150
x ≥ 150/1.25
x ≥ 120

Let

x-------> the number of churros sold

we know that

[tex]1.25x \geq 150[/tex] -----> inequality that represent the situation

Solve for x

Divide by [tex]1.25[/tex] both sides

[tex]x \geq 150/1.25[/tex]

[tex]x \geq 120\ churros[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

The minimum number of churros that must be sold is [tex]120[/tex]
