Please help!! 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? 20 ≤ x ≤ 200 40 ≤ x ≤ 100 100 ≤ x ≤ 200 20 ≤ x ≤ 100 Thank you in advance. ~Micah K.

She has to earn at least 200 you say? How many cakes does she have to sell to make 200?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

40.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because 200 divided by 5 is 40.

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

So the lower limit of x has to be 40 ^_^ How many cakes could she POSSIBLY sell at most?

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Like, you know, if business is all too good, if she sells all her cakes and all that.. what's the maximum... come on, it's written right in your question... XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

500, because 100 times 5 is 500.

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

I'm not asking you how much she could possibly EARN (that's the 500) I'm asking how much she could possibly SELL.

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Mark you were spot on XD

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

But no spoilers next time >:(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

100.

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

There you go. So, lower limit is 40, upper limit is 100. Do you know the answer now? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No. :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is it B?

OpenStudy (skyz):

What one has 40 and 100 in it >.>

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Seriously? I all but told you the answer in my previous post LOL She has to sell at least 40 and of course, at most 100.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because 40 is the minimum and 100 is the maximum.

OpenStudy (skyz):

LAWL I mean im just being plain and simple here c:

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Yes. So please don't ask me the answer... TELL me the answer :>

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

^not you Mark XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And x is anywhere in the middle.

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Yup...so answer? :>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay. The answer is B.

OpenStudy (skyz):

Thank you Terenz Ill try and get ur name right next time c:

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Good. Don't you dare tell me that was difficult :>

OpenStudy (skyz):

LOL

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Much appreciated :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It wasn't.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I never implied that..... :)

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Good, good. Keep that up :>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For all of you reading this, the answer is 40 ≤ x ≤ 100 (B).

OpenStudy (skyz):

its just us..

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

It is?! OMG LOL jk

OpenStudy (skyz):

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
