Your class hopes to collect at least 325 cans of food for the annual food drive. there were 135 cans donated the first week and 89 more the second week.
a; write an inequality that describes this situation. let c represent the number of cans of food that must be collected by the end of the third week for your class to meet your surpass its goal.
b; how may cans are needed to meet or surpass the goal

They have collected cans until now. To equal 325, they need cans more.

A.

Let C be the number needed to equate atleast 325.

B.

If we solve the inequality in part A, we can find minimum number of C to meet the goal of 325 cans.

So they need minimum 101 to complete the target and more than that to surpass.

ANSWER: 101 cans are needed to meet the goal and more than that to surpass the goal.

let y equal to

the total fare and x is the mile of taxi ride. so the equation is

y = 0.55x + 1.75

since susie has

$10 to spend for a taxi cab, so he can have

10 = 0.55x +

1.75

x = 15 miles of

taxi ride

so the system of

inequality is

10 < 0.55x +

1.75

x > 2
