a.
`2.25 + 199.75p \leq 500; p\leq 416`

b.
`(119.75 + 2.25)p \leq 500; p \leq 409`

c.
`119.75 + 2.25p \leq 500; p \leq 169`

d.
`2.25p - 119.75 \leq 500; p \leq 275`

Answer 1

the correct option will be d

Answer 2

Answer: 169

Step-by-step explanation: We can set up an inequality. Subtract 119.75 to both sides: Divide 2.25 by both sides: So the maximum number of pastries that can be baked each day is 169. hope that helped x
