Question

Help plz!! i am having a hard time

Answer 1

If x represents the number of flower baskets, then, just as you showed, the answer cant be either a or b because store A doesnt charge $15 per flower basket but rather $15 for delivery. To see whether it is c or d, simply use the same number to represent the number of flower baskets in both inequalities. The easiest would be 1 because then youre multiplying - in the case of store A - 19.25 (how much each flower basket costs) times 1 (the total number of flower baskets) and then adding 15 (the cost of delivery) which is a total of 34.25. For store B it would be 17.5 times 1 plus 30 which equals 47.5. Therefore, the inequality for store A is less than that of store B, so D would be the answer. (i hope that sort of makes sense sjdjdjjs)
