There are 12 face cards and 4 aces to choose from. For the first card, the probability of drawing a face is
. Then the probability of drawing an ace second is
.
So the probability of drawing these two particular cards in the given order is
The net amount they raise is the amount they receive minus what they pay in expenses.
They receive:
$10,000 fixed amount in donations
$55 per person
They pay:
$15 per person
If there are x number of entries, they receive 55x from the entries.
Also, they pay 15x for the entries.
The net amount they raise is amount they receive min us amount they pay:
55x + 10,000 - 15x
which simplifies to
40x + 10,0000
They want to raise at least $55,000.
At least $55,000 means $55,000 or more.
They want to raise an amount greater than or equal to $55,000.
Now we write the inequality:
40x + 10,000 >= 55,000
Now we solve the inequality for x, the number of entries.
40x >= 45,000
x >= 1125
They must have 1125 or more race entries to raise $55,000.
