Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following variable definitions:

sofas: x

pillows: y

Pillows come in pairs so we have 2y pillows

The total order for all the possible combinations is:

$x+2y$

The wholesaler requires a minimum of 4 items in each order from its retail customers. This means the retailers can order 4 or more.

Therefore the inequality is:

$x+2y\ge4$

To graph this inequality, we graph the corresponding linear equation, $x+2y=4$ with a solid line and shade above.

The correct choice is D
