the students in charge of the class booth at a carnival would like to earn $3 for every item they sell. they spent $55 for the materials to make the items. solve the inequality 3x-55_>65 which represents how many items they need to sell to make profit of at least $65

x ≥ 40

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 55 ≥ 65

combine like terms

3x  ≥ 65 + 55

3x  ≥120

divide both sides of the equation by 3

x  ≥ 40

the thermometer is precise but not accurate

step-by-step explanation:

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
