Hugh has to earn at least $400 to meet his fundraising goal. He has only 100 books that he plans to sell at $8 each. Which inequality shows the number of books, x, Hugh can sell to meet his goal?
If you would like to find the inequality that shows the number of books Hugh can sell to meet his goal, you can do this using the following steps:
x = ? ... the number of books
$8 * x >= $400
8 * x >= 400
x >= 400 / 8
x >= 50 books
The correct result would be: $8 * x >= $400.
