Question

Shiloh has to earn at least $200 to meet her fundraising goal. She has only 100 cakes that she plans to sell at 5 dollars each. Which inequality shows the number of cakes, x, Shiloh can sell to meet her goal?and why

Answer 1

Here is the inequality you can enumerate:

5x >= 200, this means the money you sold for cakes must be larger or equal to your goal

x <= 100, this means you cannot sell more than 100 cakes, because you only have 100 cakes

Solve for them, you will get: 40 <= x <= 100
