We can solve the inequality by subtracting 300 from both sides:
15x + 300 - 300 ≥ 600 - 300,
which simplifies to 15x ≥ 300.
Finally, we divide both sides by 15 to find the value of x:
15x/15 ≥ 300/15,
which simplifies to x ≥ 20.
So, Suzanne will need to make at least 20 sales to earn at least $600.
Suzanne earns $300 per week plus $15 per sale at her job. She is hoping to make AT LEAST $600 this week. How many sales will she need to make? Suzanne writes the inequality 15x+300≥600, where x = the number of sales. Solve the inequality.
