Your baseball team is selling bags of popcorn to raise money for a trip. For each bag of popcorn you sell, $4 goes towards your trip. You hope to earn at least $140 for the trip. Write and solve an inequality that represents the numbers x of bags of popcorn you must sell to reach your goal.

To write the inequality...$4 per bag multiplied by the number of bags must be greater than or equal to $140.

$4x > $140
Divide both sides by 4
x=35

The inequality function and the value of x is $4x > $140, and x = 35.

Given that,

  • The price should goes up by $4.
  • And, the minimum earnings should be $140.
  • Here we assume the number of popcorn bags be x.

Based on the above information, the inequality function is as follows:

$4x > $140

Now Divide it by both sides with 4

So,  

x= 35

Therefore we can conclude that the inequality function and the value of x is $4x > $140, and x = 35.
