Question

an online furniture store sells chairs for $150 each and tables for $750 each. the store must sell at least $12000 worth of chairs and tables each day. write an inequality that could represent the possible values for the number of tables sold, $t$, and the number of chairs sold, $c$, that would satisfy the constraint.

Explanation:

Step1: Define revenue from chairs

Revenue from chairs: $150c$

Step2: Define revenue from tables

Revenue from tables: $750t$

Step3: Set total revenue constraint

Total revenue ≥ $12000$, so sum the two revenues and set the inequality.
$150c + 750t \geq 12000$

Answer:

$150c + 750t \geq 12000$
