Final answer:

The inequality 5x + 3y ≤ 450 represents all possible combinations of x, the number of quesadillas sold, and y, the number of burritos sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

To represent all possible combinations of the number of quesadillas sold and the number of burritos sold, we can use the inequality 5x + 3y ≤ 450. Here, x represents the number of quesadillas sold and y represents the number of burritos sold. The left-hand side of the inequality represents the total amount earned from selling quesadillas and burritos, which should be less than or equal to $450.

5x + 3y ≤ 450

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

Use the given information that quesadillas are sold for $5 each and burritos are sold for $3 each.

Let x represent the number of quesadillas sold and y represent the number of burritos sold. The total amount sold should be no more than $450. So, the inequality that represents this situation is:

  • 5x + 3y ≤ 450
