Writing Algebraic Expressions
This is the name of the number multiplied to a variable in an equation, an expression, or an inequality. Can look like -5m
What is a coefficient
Given, -3x + 14 = 29, we do this in respect to the unknown.
What is isolate the variable.
A small business owner rents a booth for $80 per day to sell handmade scarves. Each scarf costs $12 in materials to make and is sold for $30 each. The owner wants to make at least $200 in profit after covering rent and material costs.
Write an inequality to determine the minimum number of scarves (𝑥) the owner needs to sell to meet their goal. Then, solve the inequality.
18x − 80 ≥ 200,
x ≥ 16
