The math club needs to raise more than $552.50 for a trip to the state competition. The club has raised 12% of the funds. Which inequality shows how much each of the 7 club members needs to raise if each raises the same amount?

Answer:
m> $69.46
Step-by-step explanation:
The math club raised 12%, and we know that 12% as a decimal is 0.12 (12/100=0.12).
We must find 12% of 552.50.
0.12 x 552.5=66.3
66.3 was raised.
552.5-66.3= 486.2
There are 7 members, so divide by 7.
486.2 / 7= 69.457 → 69.46
∴Each member must raised at least $69.46
