Answer:

x\geq 50

Step-by-step explanation:  

Let x be number of tickets that still need to be sold.

We have been given that tickets to a school dance cost $5. So cost of x tickets will be 5x.  

We have been given that 90 tickets have already been sold. Therefore, cost of 90 tickets will be 90*5.

We are told that at least $700 must be earned from selling of tickets. So price of 5x plus 90*5 must be greater than or equal to 700.

Let us represent this information in an inequality.  

5x+90\cdot 5\geq 700

5x+450\geq 700

5x\geq 700-450

5x\geq 250

x\geq \frac{250}{5}

x\geq 50

Therefore, at least 50 tickets must be sold to earn at least $700.

saw5 [17]
<span>-5(3t-5)+7t=8t-6
-15t + 25 + 7t = 8t - 6
-15t + 7t - 8t = -6 - 25
-16t = -31
16t = 31
t = 31/16 = 1.9375</span>

Help me with this please.<br>​
Flura [38]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Points A,B ,C are all to the left of 0 so they are negative

We want a point -3 1/2

The points A and B are to the left of -3 so they are more negative than -3

A is at -5 so it cannot be -3 1/2
