The 45 members of the glee club are trying to raise 6,000 dollars so they can compete in the state championship. They already have 1,240 dollars. What inequality can you write to find the amount each member must raise, on average, to meet the goal?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount that each member must raise on average to meet the goal.

The total amount that the members of the glee club are trying to raise so they can compete in the state championship is 6,000 dollars.

They already have 1,240 dollars. This means that the total amount left for them to raise would be

6000 - 1240 = 4760

The club has 45 members.

Therefore,

x ≥ 4760/45

x ≥ 106
