Unit 4 Portfolio Part 1
You want to start a bakery business to earn money. The total amount of money you will invest is $10,000 It will cost you $14 to make each cake.
b)
Solve this inequality and choose the graph of the solution.
* Make sure to round to the nearest dollar.
Do not include dollar signs in the solution
You can copy and paste the inequality sign below in your answer.
≥ < > ≤
***Make sure to have x and an inequality sign in your answer. You will be selling cakes.
Let x represent the number of cakes sold.
The amount of money needed to make each cake is $14.
To find the total cost of making x cakes, we multiply the cost per cake by the number of cakes sold:
Total cost = $14 * x
The total amount of money to be invested is $10,000.
We can represent this as an inequality:
$14x ≤ $10,000
In words, this inequality states that the amount of money made from selling the cakes (14x) must be less than or equal to the initial investment of $10,000.
The graph of this inequality would be a line that represents the maximum number of cakes that can be sold while staying within the $10,000 investment budget.
