Question

Trey is buying peach and blueberry yogurt cups. He will buy at most 8 cups of yogurt. Let x be the number of peach yogurt cups and y be the number of blueberry yogurt cups he buys. Write an inequality to represent this situation

Answer 1

Answer:

8 ≤ x + y

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to consider what is in the problem.

max number of cups = 8

x = number of peach cups

y = number of blueberry cups

Using this information, create an inequality that represents the situation

8 ≤ total number of cups

total number of cups = x + y

8 ≤ x + y

This is therefore the most representative equation for the situation.
