Respuesta :

Answer:

c ≥ 10 dozen

Step-by-step explanation:

Victor wants to have at least 10 dozen cookies for the bake sale.

In layman terms it can be understood as that Victor wants either  10 dozen cookies or more than that such as 11, 12, 13, 50 , 100 whatever number is greater than 10.

Let the no. of dozen of cookies wanted by him is c

according to condition

if victor wants  either 10 dozen cookies

it can be represented mathematically as

c = 10 dozen  (1)

_____________________________________

If victor wants no. of dozens of cookies greater than 10 .

it can be written as

c >10  dozen (2) (">" is symbol for greater than . expression simply means value of x should be greater than 10)

______________________________________________

now combining  equation one and two, we have

c ≥ 10 dozen . It can means that x can take value starting from 10 to any no greater than..
