The adventure club is selling candy bars to go on their annual outing. The bars sell for $2 a bar. The club bought 725 bars for $400. The club needs to make at least $1,000 to go on their trip. Which inequality best represents this problem, and are the 725 bars a viable option to make enough profit?(1 point)

2b−400≥1000 , and no, it is not a viable option.
2 b minus 400 greater than or equal to 1000 , and no, it is not a viable option.
2b−400≤1000 , and no, it is not a viable option.

The correct inequality is:
2b - 400 ≥ 1000
This inequality states that the total profit from selling candy bars (2b) minus the cost of buying the bars ($400) is greater than or equal to the required amount to go on the trip ($1000).
No, the 725 bars are not a viable option because they will not generate enough profit.
