Respuesta :

Let x be the amount raised by each club member. Since there are 60 members, the amount raised by them would be

[tex]60x[/tex]

Now, we know the school contributed $1,000. Now, the amount raised is:

[tex]60x+1000[/tex]

Since this amount has to be at least $5,000, we have that the inequality that shows the amount of money that each glee club member needs to raise to help pay for the trip is:

[tex]60x+1000>5000[/tex]
