Write an inequality that represents your total earnings based on the price of your item and how many you sell. total earnings are 100$ and each cost 2$
Let's represent the number of items you sell by the variable "x". Since each item costs $2, your total earnings will be the product of the number of items sold and the price per item. Thus, we have:
Total earnings = $2 * x
Since the total earnings are $100, the inequality that represents this situation is:
$2 * x ≥ $100.
Let's define the variable "x" as the number of items sold. Since each item costs $2, the total earnings can be found by multiplying the price per item ($2) by the number of items sold (x). Therefore, the inequality representing the total earnings can be written as:
2x ≤ 100
To represent your total earnings based on the price of your item and how many you sell, you can use the following inequality:
Total Earnings = Price of each item x Number of items sold
In this case, the price of each item is $2, and the total earnings are $100. Let's assign a variable to the number of items sold, for example, n.
The inequality becomes:
Total Earnings = 2n
Since the total earnings are given as $100, we can write the equation as:
2n ≥ 100
This inequality indicates that your earnings will be at least $100 when you sell n items at $2 each.
