The Therrell High Marching Band is selling candy bars for a fundraiser.
• Renee sold some candy bars.
• Robin sold twice as many candy bars as Renee.
• Together Renee and Robin sold no less than 45 candy bars.
Write an inequality to represent this situation. Give three possible solutions for how many candy bars Renee sold.

Respuesta :

Answer:

3x ≥ 45

15, 20 , 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the number of bars Renee sold as " x "

Let's call the number of bars Robin sold as " y "

Robins, y, sold two times as many bars as Renee, x

That means Robin sold 2 times x or 2x

So y = 2x

The sum of bars Renee, x,  and Robin, 2x, sold together are no less than 45

No less than 45 means the number of bars have to be greater than or equal to 45

x + 2x ≥ 45

3x ≥ 45

x ≥ 15

Renee can sell, 15, 20, or 25 bars .   (just has to be bigger or equal to 15)
