Leah needs to order some new supplies for the restaurant where she works. The restaurant needs at least 748 knives. There are currently 214 knives. If each set on sale contains 12 knives, write and solve an inequality which can be used to determine ss, the number of sets of knives Leah could buy for the restaurant to have enough knives.

Respuesta :

Answer: s (greater than or equal to) 44.5

Step-by-step explanation:

current # of knives = 214

knives per set = 12

knives needed = 748

# of sets = s

knives per set x (times) # of sets + current # of knives (greater than or equal to) knives needed

12s + 214 (greater than or equal to) 748

SOLVE:

12s + 214 (greater than or equal to) 748

-214 -214

12s (greater than or equal to) 534 you need to divide both sides by 12

s (greater than or equal to) 44.5
