D.
20x + 700 > 1,000

Respuesta :

The right answer is Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Units sold till now = 700

Selling rate per week = 20

Company's goal is to sell more than 1000 units.

Number of weeks = x

Selling rate per week* No. of weeks + units sold till now > Company's goal

[tex]20*x+700>1000\\20x+700>1000[/tex]

20x+700>1000 can be used to determine the number of weeks necessary to reach the company's year-end goal.

The right answer is Option D.
