A group has at most 200 spend on tood Sandwiches cost 15 and drinks cost $3.

Let the number of tood sandwich be x and the number of drinks be y.

Each tood sandwich costs $15.

Therefore, x tood sandwich cost 15x.

Each drink costs $3.

Therefore, y drinks cost 3y.

Group has at most $200.

Then,


15x+3y\leq200

Hence, the inequality describing the sitiation is


15x+3y\leq200
