Problema Solution

James owns a inn. He rents out small rooms for $20. James wants to make $3000 tonight. He plans on renting out $650 worth of large rooms. What is the least number of small rooms he must rent out in order to reach his goal

Answer provided by our tutors

let x = the least number of small rooms to be rented, x is integer


20x + 650 >= 3000


x >= (3000 - 650)/20


x >= 117.5


James must rent at least 118 small rooms.
