x represent the number of boxes of popcorn sold and y represent
the number of boxes of candy sold. Which system of inequalities
models the given situation?
A. 1.5x +3y > 650
y < 95
B. 1.5x +3y > 650
y < 95

Answer:

  • 1.5x + 3y ≥ 650
  • y ≤ 95

Step-by-step explanation:

Boxes of popcorn = x, each cost =  $1.50

  • ⇒ total = 1.5x

Boxes of candy = y, each cost = $3

  • ⇒ total = 3y

Total money raised, sum of the above two:

  • 1.5x + 3y

Target is to raise at least $650:

  • 1.5x + 3y ≥ 650

The sophomores expect to sell at most 95 boxes of candy:

  • y ≤ 95

The system of inequalities:

  • 1.5x + 3y ≥ 650
  • y ≤ 95
