Answer:

[tex]72+4t>400,[/tex]

[tex]t>82.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be the number of tickets the committee sold.  If Middle School earns  $4 for each ticket sold to the Spring Fling dance, then they earn $4t for t tickets sold.

If  Middle School earns $72 from a bake sale and earns $4t from selling t tickets, then they earn $(72+4t) in total.  

The dance will cost $400, so

[tex]72+4t>400,\\ \\4t>400-72,\\ \\4t>328,\\ \\t>82.[/tex]
