Jasmine is baking and selling cupcakes for $15 per dozen.
Let x be the number of dozens of cupcake made by Jasmine.
Her total sales= Sales Per Dozen X Number of Dozens of cupcake sold
= $15 X x = $15x
Since she would like to make more than $120 in cupcake sales.
It means her total sales must be greater than $120.
15x>120
x>120/15
x>8
The number line attached represents the solutions to the situation.
All integers to the right of 8 (excluding 8) satisfies the situation.

Hope this helps!:)
