India would have to sell at least 13 plates to reach her goal.
Explanation:
Let x be the number of plates India needs to sell to reach her goal. The inequality representing her goal is:
8x - 7 ≥ 97
Solving for x:
8x - 7 = 97
8x = 104
x = 13
Therefore, India would have to sell at least 13 plates to reach her goal of making $97.
India wants to make $97 selling plates of food. She sells each plate and a drink for $8. If she paid $7 for the drinks, use the inequality 8x−7≥97 to find at least how many plates she would have to sell to reach her goal.(1 point)
