Question

Jacob is ordering custom T-shirts for his soccer team. Long-sleeved shirts cost $15 each and short-sleeved shirts cost $10 each. Jacob can spend at most $250 and he wants to order at least 20 shirts.

Let x represent the number of long-sleeved shirts. Let y represent the number of short-sleeved shirts.

Which inequalities are among the constraints for this situation?

Select each correct answer.

⋅ 15x + 10y ≥ 20

⋅ x + y ≤ 250

⋅ x + y ≥ 20

⋅ 15x + 10y ≥ 250

⋅ 15x + 10y ≤ 250

⋅ x + y ≤ 20

Answer 1

x + y ≥ 20 ( total number of shirts at least 20)

15x + 10y ≤ 250 ( total amount spent no more than $250)

Answer 2

These are the answers.

3. x + y ≥ 20 

5. 15x + 10y ≤ 250 

Hope this helps and have a wonderful day!
