Jared earns money by making gift baskets for fathers day. He does one basket filled with finishing supplies and another basket with a sports fan theme, He makes a profit of $9.00 on the finishing Supply basket and a profit of $12.50 on the sports fan basket. He only has time to make 100 baskets and needs to earn at least $1,000 to Cover his summer activities. a) 12.5x + 9y < 1000, x + y > 100 b) 12.5x + 9y < 1000, x + y < 100 c) 12.5x + 9y > 1000, x + y < 100 d) 12.5x + 9y > 1000, x + y > 100 ty in advance. easy points or best answer!
--------------------
The correct answer is C. x is representing the number of supply baskets. y are the sports fan baskets. See how they are multiplied against the money he makes for each one? Now, he has to make 'at least' $1000, so technically it should be greater than or equal to 1000, but then the x + 7, again the number of total baskets made has to be less than 100 (technically less than or equal to) to not run out of time.
