The school will be charged a one-time shipping fee of $32.95 for the flowers. For each flower sold, the school will earn $1.17 for the fundraiser.
Can BOTH of these inequalities be used to determine the number of roses the students need to sell to meet the goal of $1000?
· 1.17n-32.95\geq1000, where n represents the number of roses sold
· 1.17(12d)-32.95\geq1000, where d represents the dozens of roses sold
Explain or show your reasoning.
" Yes, both of these inequalities... because..."
" No, these inequalities cannot both... because..."
