Answer:

More than 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Joshua's goal is to sell more than 20 items at a farmer's market.

Number of items already sold = 6

So, number of more items to be sold > Total number of items to be sold - Number of items already sold > 20 - 6 > 14

Given that each customer buys 2 items.

Let [tex]c[/tex] be the number of customers.

So, number of items bought be the customers = Number of items bought by each customer multiplied by the number of customers = [tex]2c[/tex]

And as per the question statement,

Number of more items to be sold > 14 (as calculated in above step)

[tex]2c>14\\\Rightarrow \bold{c>7}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is: More than 7 additional customers are required.
