As a salesperson, you are paid $100 per week plus $3 per sale. This week you want your pay to be at least $160. Write and solve an inequality for the number of sales you need to make.(1 point)

100−3s≤160; s≤18
100−3s≤160; s≤18
100+3s≥160; s≥20
100+3s≥160; s≥20
100+3s≥160; s≥18
100+3s≥160; s≥18
100−3s≤160; s≤20
The correct inequality for the number of sales you need to make is:
100 + 3s ≥ 160, where s represents the number of sales.
To solve this inequality, subtract 100 from both sides to isolate the variable:
3s ≥ 60
Then, divide both sides by 3 to solve for s:
s ≥ 20
Therefore, you need to make at least 20 sales in order to earn a weekly pay of at least $160.
whats the answer
The answer is:
s ≥ 20
