50 + 3s >100
100 - 3s ≤ 160; s ≤ 20
50+3x≥100
Explanation:
You will always have the given $50 earned per week, then you add a variable to represent the theoretical amount of sales per that week. Then, you add the ≥100 (greater than 100) to show that the sales earned for that week plus the additional $50 per week must at least $100.
