Answer:

The inequality 7.50c - 350 ≥ 700 can be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount spent on materials = $350

Amount the council needs to earn = $700

Selling price per corsage = $7.50

Number of corsages sold = c

Selling price per corsage * Number of corsages sold - amount spent on materials ≥ amount needs to be earned

[tex]7.50c - 350 \geq 700[/tex]

Hence,

The inequality 7.50c - 350 ≥ 700 can be used.
