Please help me Your student government association decide to do a fundraiser to raise money for a field trip they d ecide to sell t shirts and sweatshirts.the profit for each t shirts is $10 and the profit for each sweatshirt is $15. They want to sell 50 items at most compared to t shirts they want to sell at least half as many swaetshort with profit of at least $500.

graph the system of inequalities

Answer 1

Explanation:

They certainly have 50 items. The overall profit should be at least $500 (?)

If they would sell only t-shirts , the overall profit would be no more then $500

If they would sell only sweatshirts, the overall profit would be at least $750

Considering x- number of t-shirts sold and y- number of sweatshirts sold then:

`500 \leqslant 10 * x + 15 * y`

`x + y \geqslant 50`

`y \geqslant x / 2`
