Question

Pet Supplies makes a profit of $5.50 per bag on its line of natural dog food. If the store wants to make a profit of no less than $5,225.00, how many bags of dog food does it need to sell?

x ≤ 750
x ≥ 750
x ≤ 950
x ≥ 950

Answer 1

Answer: It would be x ≤ 950.

Explanation:

If you did $5.50 times 950 you would get the $5,225. So you know that it is the 950 then you know the 950 is the number of bags you need. Then you want no less than $5,225 so it would have to be the x ≤ 950.

Answer 2

Answer: x ≤ 950

Explanation:

5,225.00÷5.50

= 950
