Olivia visited a stationery shop to buy journals. She had $36 allocated for the purchase. Olivia bought 4 journals. Following the purchase, Olivia had less than $12 remaining. What is the solution set for c, representing the cost of each journal?
Let's assume c represents the cost of each journal.
Olivia bought 4 journals, so the total cost would be 4c.
Olivia had $36 allocated for the purchase, and after buying 4 journals, she had less than $12 remaining.
Therefore, the equation would be:
36 - 4c < 12
36 - 12 < 4c
24 < 4c
24 / 4 < c
6 < c
The solution set for c representing the cost of each journal is c > 6.
