the students in charge of the class booth at a carnival would like to earn $3 for every item they sell. they spent $55 for the materials to make the items. solve the inequality 3x-55_>65 which represents how many items they need to sell to make profit of at least $65

x ≥ 40

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 55 ≥ 65

combine like terms

3x  ≥ 65 + 55

3x  ≥120

divide both sides of the equation by 3

x  ≥ 40

2nd Option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Renata has $20 in gift card.

She bought 16 songs.

After purchase Balance in gift card = $0

⇒ Cost of 16 songs = $20

⇒ Cost of 1 song = 20/16 = $ 1.25

let x represent number of songs purchased and y represent balance on her gift card.

So, Cost of x songs = 1.25 × x = 1.25x

And Balance = 20 - 1.25 x

Thus, Required equation representing relationship between balance on gift card and number of song purchased.

y = 20 - 1.25x

1.25x + y = 20

If we multiply both sides of equation with 4, we get

5x + 4y = 80

Therefore, 2nd Option is correct.
