    20

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We know that all black beards cost the same money

    And all red beards cost $25

    And B represents number of black beards

    And R represents number of red beards

    We have been given the inequality 20B+25R > 350 to show the target for this month.

    The above inequality shows that Merlin needs to make more than 350, hence he made 350 last month

    Further, it shows that B has been multiplied by 20, hence the black beard's cost was 20

    Answer: According to the inequality Merlin make$350 last month, and each black beard costs $20.

    He doesn't achieve his goal by selling 5 black beards and 10 red beards, but he can't relinquish because he only needs to sell one more beard to achieve his goal.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Hi, analyzing the inequality, the term on the right is the total amount that Merlin made last month (since is equal to the sum of the sales of the beards)

    20B + 25R > 350

    According to the inequality Merlin make$350 last month, and each black beard costs $20.

    Since B is the number of black beards, the number that multiplies that variable is the cost of each black beard. (20)

    If he sells 5 black beads and 10 red beards.

    We have to replace the values in the inequality

    20 (5) + 25 (10) = 350

    He doesn't achieve his goal, because he sells the same amount (not more)

    He can't relinquish because he only needs to sell one more beard to achieve his goal.
