Answer:

a) no

b) yes

c) 0.75(37 + c) ≥ 45

Step-by-step explanation:

lemonade = $0.75 per cup

Saturday sales = 37 cups

Let c = number of cups sold on Sunday

⇒ Total weekend sales = 0.75(37 + c)

a) No, they will not reach their goal of making at least $45

If c = 12:

Total weekend sales = 0.75(37 + 12)= 0.75 x 49 = $36.75

$36.75 < $45

b) Yes, they will reach their goal of making at least $45

If c = 25:

Total weekend sales = 0.75(37 + 25)= 0.75 x 62 = $46.50

$46.50 > $45

c)

0.75(37 + c) ≥ 45
