Select the correct answer.

Pattie's Produce charges $[tex]$2.29$[/tex] for a package of strawberries. On average, Pattie's Produce sells 95 packages of strawberries daily. They estimate that for each 20-cent increase in the cost of a package of strawberries, 9 fewer packages will be sold each day. Let [tex]$x$[/tex] represent the number of 20-cent increases in the cost of a package of strawberries.

Which inequality represents the values of [tex]$x$[/tex] that would allow Pattie's Produce to have a daily revenue of at least $[tex]$255$[/tex] from selling the packages of strawberries?
A. [tex]$-1.8 x^2-21.61 x+217.55 \leq 255$[/tex]
B. [tex]$-1.8 x^2+1.61 x+217.55 \leq 255$[/tex]
C. [tex]$-1.8 x^2-1.61 x+217.55 \geq 255$[/tex]
D. [tex]$-1.8 x^2+21.61 x+217.55 \geq 255$[/tex]

There are 9 red cars, 18 white cars, 12 blue cars, and 6 black cars in the parking lot, totaling 45 cars. This distribution meets all the conditions laid out in the problem. Each number of cars is a factor of 36, and the relationships among car colors hold true.
