Question

Gamal is buying ham and turkey to make sandwiches for a party. At most, he can spend $50, and he must buy more than 8 pounds of meat to make enough sandwiches. The ham costs $6 per pound, and the turkey costs $7 per pound. He writes the system of inequalities shown to model h, the number of pounds of ham, and t, the number of pounds of turkey, he can buy.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option A, should be less than or equal to 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to the factors on the previous answer, t is less than our equal to 2, and h is 6. Commo sense

Answer 2

H +t = 8
$6h + $7t ≤$50

h+t = 8
h +t-t=8-t
h= 8-t

$6(8-t) + $7t ≤$50
48-6t +7t≤50
48-48+t≤50-48
t ≤ 2
h=6

$6(6) + $7(2) ≤$50
36 + 14 ≤ 50
50≤50

He can buy 6 pounds of ham and 2 pounds of turkey
