Question

Scarlett is selling cupcakes and muffins to raise money for her choir club. She sells each cupcake for $3.50 and each muffin for $2.50. Scarlett's goal is to raise at least $100.
Which inequality can be used to describe the number of cupcakes, c, and the number of muffins, m, that Scarlett can sell in order to meet her goal?

Answer 1

3.50c + 2.50m ≥ 100

(Equivalently, multiply by 2: 7c + 5m ≥ 200.)
