Inequality 2_________

Answer 1

The two inequalities are:

$a\geq 200\\\\5a + 2.50c\leq 1500$

Solution:

Let "a" be the number of adult sized t shirts

Let "c" be the number of child sized t shirts

Given that,

Each Adult sized t shirts = $ 5

Each child sized t shirts = $ 2.50

Jerome need at least 200 adults t-shirt

Therefore,

$a\geq 200$

Here, we used "greater than or equal to" symbol, since he needs atleast 200 adult t-shirts

Jerome will spend no more than $1500 on t-shirt

Therefore,

$5a + 2.50c\leq 1500$

Here we used, "less than or equal to" symbol, since he will not spend more than 1500

Thus the two inequalities are found
