Sarah's youth group is selling candy bars for a fundraiser. The candy bars cost $2 each. To date, they have raised $900. Their goal is to raise more than $3,300. How many more candy bars, x, do they need to sell to reach their goal? Select the inequality that includes the smallest number of candy bars they can sell and still reach their goal
To find the number of candy bars they still need to sell, we subtract the amount they have already raised from their goal: $3,300 - $900 = $<<3300-900=2400>>2400.
To find the number of candy bars, we divide the remaining money needed by the price of each candy bar: $2400 / $2/bar = <<2400/2=1200>>1200 bars.
The inequality that includes the smallest number of candy bars they need to sell is x ≥ 1200.
