Question

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWERS ONLY PLEASE!!!

Jude is placing boxes on a shelf that holds up to 80 lb. He has x small boxes that weigh 5 lb each and y large boxes that weigh 12 lb each. Jude needs at least 4 small boxes on the shelf.

Select ALL inequalities that model this situation.

Answer 1

up to = less than or equal to

at least = greater than or equal to

The answer is correct

the max weight shall be 80

mass of small box = 5 lb. ( and there are x number of boxes )

Mass of big box = 12 lb. ( and there are y number of boxes )

adding them up shall be less than or equal to 80 ( as the shelf can withstand up to 80 lbs. )

And the minimum number of boxes shall be equal to 4

If we take the x as the number of boxes, then x would be greater than or equal to 4

Hope my answer helps!
