Tonisha has a lemonade stand. She has $36 in expenses and wants to make at least $55 per day. If x represents the amount of revenue from selling lemonade, an inequality to represent the amount of revenue she would need to generate would be, then solve the inequality.

1 answer

The inequality to represent the amount of revenue she would need to generate is:
x ≥ 36 + 55

To solve the inequality, we need to subtract 36 from both sides:
x - 36 ≥ 36 + 55 - 36
x - 36 ≥ 55

Simplifying further, we have:
x ≥ 91

So, Tonisha would need to generate at least $91 in revenue.
