We want to find how many more T-shirts the school band has to sell to reach or exceed their goal. From the exercise, we know that they have already raised $45 and that they get $5 for each T-shirt sold. Let's use x to represent the number of T-shirts sold in our expression.
Amount of money raised = 45 + 5 * xWe also know that the band's goal is $ 150. This means that want to raise at least $ 150. Now, we can finish our inequality.
45 + 5 * x ≥ 150
Next, we will solve the inequality we created using the properties of inequalities. Let's do it!
