Question 938602: it costs a restaurant owner $0.28 per glass of orange juice, which sells $1.75 per glass. how many glasses of orange juice must the owner sell to make a profit of $2058 Answer by algebrahouse.com(1659) (Show Source):
1.75g - 0.28g ≥ 2058 {value of sales minus value of expenses needs to be greater than or equal to 2058}
1.47g ≥ 2058 {combined like terms}
g ≥ 1,400 {divided each side by 1.47}
the number of glasses needs to be greater than or equal to 1,400
