Answer:
The correct answer is 72 + 4 × x 400.
Step-by-step explanation:
The dance committee of Pine Bluff Middle School earns $72 from a bake sale and will earn $4 for each ticket they sell to the Spring Fling dance.
The dance will cost $400.
Let x number of tickets the committee could sell.
Total money earned is 72 + 4 × x.
The committee should have some left over money also after spending for the dance which costs $400.
Thus the inequality to determine the number of tickets the committee could sell to have money left over after they pay for this year's dance is given by,
72 + 4 × x 400.
