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.
a)
Write an inequality that represents the cost of making x amount of cakes should not exceed this investment.
* Do not include the dollar symbol in the inequality
You can copy and paste the inequality sign below in your answer.
≥ < > ≤
The inequality representing the cost of making x amount of cakes should not exceed the investment is 14x ≤ 10,000.
The inequality that represents the cost of making x amount of cakes should not exceed the investment of $10,000 is:
14x ≤ 10000
To write the inequality representing the cost of making x amount of cakes not exceeding the investment, we need to compare the cost to the investment amount. Since it costs $14 to make each cake and you want to make x cakes, the total cost of making x cakes would be 14x.
The inequality can be written as follows:
14x ≤ 10000
This inequality states that the total cost of making x cakes should not exceed $10,000.
b)
Solve this inequality and choose the graph of the solution.
* Make sure to round to the nearest whole number.
Do not include dollar signs in the solution
