Let's say the Spanish Club must sell x churros to meet its goal.
The amount of money raised by selling x churros at $1.25 each is 1.25x.
We can now write the inequality: 1.25x >= 150
We can solve this inequality by dividing both sides by 1.25: x >= 150 / 1.25
Simplifying the right side: x >= 120
So, the Spanish Club must sell at least 120 churros to meet its goal.
