Help me find one possible solution to the inequality and show how it makes sense in the situation.

A yearbook company promises to give the junior class a picnic if they spend at least $28,000 on yearbooks and class rings. Each yearbook costs $35, and each class ring costs $140. How many yearbooks and class rings must the junior class buy to get their picnic?

here is the inequality: 35x + 140y ≥ 2800
