Question

The drama club is selling candles for a fundraiser. They spend $100 on the candles and sell them for $4.50 each. The inequality x > 50 is the solution to the inequality representing the situation, where x represents the number of candles sold. Which are viable solutions in the context of the situation? Check all that apply. 0 50 50.5 56 60

Answer 1

Answer:

D and E, or 56 and 60

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality says the value must be greater than or equal to 50, so that can take out the first two (0 and 50), since they do not fit this criteria. 50.5 also does not work, because the club cannot sell half a candle. Therefor, the last two choices are the only ones that make sense in the context of the situation.
