Please help Caleb owns a sugar factory. He's already sold $245.50 worth of sugar today and hopes to sell at least $1,250 worth today. Sugar costs $2.50 per pound. Which graph shows all the amounts of sugar that Caleb can sell today and still meet his goal?

Answer

Graph B

Explanation

The equation for this scenario is 245.50+2.50x = 1,250 where x is the number of pounds of sugar that Caleb can sell.

You know that x is 401.80.

The term "at least" means x or more.

This would mean greater than.

So graph C and D are eliminated (because they display less than).

Graph A shows greater than 401.80, but Caleb can still meet his goal if he sells exactly 401.80.

Graph B is correct because it shows greater than, and includes x.

the range is 19

step-by-step explanation:

the range is biggest number minus the smallest, so in this case it would be

41 - 22 = 19
