Question

the student council set a goal of raising at least $500 in flower sales. so far it has raised $415 .write an inequality to show how many more dollars, d, the student council needs to reach its goal

Answer 1

Answer: $415+d\leq500$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the number of dollars needed by students council to reach its goal.

Given: The student council set a goal of raising at least ( less than or equal to ) $500 in flower sales.

Currently, the student council raised the amount = $415

Now, the inequality to show the number of more dollars, d, the student council needs to reach its goal is given by :-

$415+d\leq500$

Answer 2

415 + d ≥ 500

I believe that's the inequality since they want to raise a minimum of $500 so that means it can be more than $500. Hope I helped.
