Write an inequality and a solution to the inequality.

Answer 1

Answer:

67 tickets

hope it helps

Step-by-step explanation:

if they need to raise $1000 dollars and each ticket is $15 to find how many tickets need to be sold in order to meet their goal you would have to divide 1000 by 15 and you will get the number of tickets that need to be sold

1000 ÷ 15 = 66.6

so we would round in order to meet our goal so they need to sell 67 tickets

And if you wanna check your work you can multiply 67 by 15 and you should get the amount to reach their goal

67 x 15 =  $1005
