Question

The seventh grade class is putting on a variety show to raise money. It cost $700 to rent the banquet hall that they are going to use. If they charge $15 for each ticket, how many tickets do they need to sell in order to raise at least $1000 how many tickets did they need to sell

Answer 1

Well because they want 1000 dollars profit they need the inequality "15x is greater than or equal too 1700 dollars" But overall if you divide 1700 by 15 and round up on the decimal you get 114. So 114 is your answer.
