An animal shelter has $2500 in its reserve fund. The shelter charges $40 per animal placement and would like to have at least $4000 in its reserve fund. Write an inequality to represent this situation.

Answer 1

if you search the Question up the fist thing to pop up should say Gr7_Math_Revision_T2. on the 7th page your answer, I think. is there

Explanation:

Step 1

Write and solve the inequality:

2,500 + 40a ≥ 4,000, or 40a ≥ 1,500

a ≥ 37.5

Step 2

If the shelter places 30 cats and 10 dogs,

or 40 animals, that will be enough to meet

its goal, because a = 40 is a solution to the

inequality a ≥ 37.5.
