If we let
x as the number of Caramel Apple lollipops sold
y as the number of Gourmet lollipops sold

Then, we can make an inequality from the given which is
0.50x + 0.75y ≥ 250
The graph of this inequality would have a y intercept of
500 and a slope of 2/3 and includes all the points above the solid line.
