Question

Hong buys candy that costs $5 per pound. He will buy at least 7 lbs of candy. What are the possible amounts he will spend on candy? Use c for the amount (in dollars) Hong will spend on candy. Write your answer as an inequality solved for c.

Answer 1

Explanation:

if he buys 7 pounds, it will cost 7×5 = $35

he might buy more than that (and it will then also cost more than that) , but not less than that.

so,

c >= $35
