The inequality <u>6s - 300 > 210</u> represents the minimum number of socks (s) when George bought socks for "$"300 and planned to sell them for $6 a pair, and want to make a profit of more than 210.

In the question, we are given that George bought socks for $300.

Therefore, George's total cost = $300.

We assume the number of pairs of socks George sells to be s.

The unit price per pair quoted by George = $6

Therefore, George's total sales = $6s.

We know that the profit over a transaction is given as the difference between sales and costs, that is,

The profit = The total sales - the total costs,

or, profit = 6s - 300.

In the question, we are required to make a profit of more than 210.

This can be shown by the inequality,

6s - 300 > 210.

Thus, the inequality <u>6s - 300 > 210</u> represents the minimum number of socks (s) when George bought socks for "$"300 and planned to sell them for $6 a pair, and want to make a profit of more than 210.
