a) The inequality that represents the cost of making x amount of cakes should not exceed the investment of $10,000 is:
14x ≤ 10,000
b) Solving the inequality:
First, divide both sides of the inequality by 14:
x ≤ 10,000/14
x ≤ 714.29
Round to the nearest dollar:
x ≤ 714
The graph of the solution is a vertical line with a closed circle at (714,0) on the x-axis, and shaded to the left of the line to represent all the possible values of x that satisfy the inequality.
You want to start a bakery business to earn money. The total amount of money you will invest is $10,000. You will be selling cakes. It will cost you $14 to make each cake.
