a
2.50C + 3.25B < 35

b
2.50C + 3.25B ≤ 35

c
2.50C + 3.25B > 35

d
2.50C + 3.25B ≥ 35

Answer 1

The answer to the question is B ,

Answer 2

Answer: Choice b

2.50C + 3.25B ≤ 35

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

Work Shown:

C = number of cupcake boxes

B = number of brownie boxes

2.50C = cost of the cupcakes only

3.25B = cost of the brownies only

2.50C + 3.25B = total cost

total cost ≤ 35

2.50C + 3.25B ≤ 35
