Given :

Zach wants to make a profit of more than 300 for painting 4 identical too rooms.

The cost of supplies is 32.50 for each room.

To Find :

Which inequality and solution represent the dollar amount n, that zack must be paid for each room, if he is to make a profit more than $300.

Solution :

Profit is given by :

Profit = S.P - C.P

Now, it is given that profit > 300 .

Profit = S.P - C.P > 300


4n - 4* 32.5 > 300\\\\n - 32.5 > 75\\\\n > \$107.5

Hence, this is the required solution.
