Jacob is ordering custom T-shirts for his soccer team. Long-sleeved shirts cost $15 each and short-sleeved shirts cost $10 each. Jacob can spend at most $250 and he wants to order at least 20 shirts.
Let x represent the number of long-sleeved shirts. Let y represent the number of short-sleeved shirts.
Which inequalities are among the constraints for this situation?
Select each correct answer.
A. x + y < _250
B. x + y <_ 20
C. 15x + 10y >_ 20
D. 15x + 10y <_ 250
E. x + y >_ 20
F. 15x + 10y >_ 250

=====================================

explanation

the graph has a slope of 1/3 because each time you move up 1, you go to the right 3. so, slope = rise/run = 1/3. we can cross choice a off the list since we want a slope of 3, rather than 1/3.

the first table shown has a slope of -3. this is because the rise is -6 and the run is 2, so slope = rise/run = -6/2 = -3. note how x increases by 2 each time (run) and y drops by 6 each time (rise). choice b can be eliminated.

the second table has a slope of 3. each time x goes up by 1, the y values increase by 3. slope = rise/run = 3/1 = 3. alternatively you can use the slope formula to prove that the slope is 3 here. use any two rows of values to generate the two points. choice c is one of the answers

the third table also has a slope of 3. let's use the slope formula to prove as such. i'm going to use the first two rows of the table. so i'll use the two points (2,1) and (5,10)

m = slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (10-1)/(5-2)

m = 9/3

m = 3 so we get a slope of 3

choice d is the other answer

6 adults and 9 children went.

a + c = 15

12a + 9c = 153

12(6) + 9(9) = 153

72 + 81 = 153
