I need to find the Inequality and the answer to the inequality

Respuesta :

The total number of spoons required is 549.

The number of available spoons is, 273.

The set contains 10 spoons. Then let us take, n be the number of sets Brandon could buy. We have,

[tex]273+10n\ge549[/tex]

Solving for n, we have,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 273+10n\ge549 \\ 10n\ge549-273 \\ 10n\ge276 \\ n\ge\frac{276}{10}=27.6 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the number of sets is 28.
