Becky is collecting money for an fundraiser she wants to collect more than $1,910.00 and has already $281.00. Becky averages $24
2 answers:
Becky needs at least 68 people to donate money into her fundraiser.
The question requests that we write an inequality to show the number of additional people Becky needs to collect from to meet her goal.
Data given;
- Target = $1,910.0
- Per head = $24.00
- Amount collected = $281.00
This is the process of comparing two values to show than either one is greater than or less than the other value.
The inequality of the situation would be
The inequality above would enable us solve for this problem.
From the calculation above, it shows that she needs at least 68 people to donate in order to meet her target.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given inequality is .
To graph that inequality, first we need to graph the line . Then shade it for the inequality symbol <.
Graphing line can be done using two points.
plug x=0 into , we get:
Hence first point is (0,2)
Similarly plug any random number for x say x=4, we get:
Hence first point is (4,5).
Now we just need to graph both points and join them by a dotted line. because we have < not <=.
Next part is to test for shading.
Which can be done using any test point which is not on the given line. Say (0,0)
plug x=0,y=0 into .
0<2
which is true, hence shading will be in direction of test point (0,0).
Hence final answer will be the choice which looks like the graph attached below;
