The soccer team is selling bags of popcorn for $3 each and cups of lemonade for $2 each. To make a profit, they must collect a total of more than $120. Solutions can be represented by coordinates (p,c), where p represents the number of bags of popcorn sold and c represents the number of cups of lemonade sold. Is the coordinate (10,45) a solution to the inequality? Explain your reasoning or show your work.

3x + 2y ≥ 120

you are asking me to confirm whether the below statement is true

10 * 3 + 45 *2 ≥ 120 ?

30 + 90 = 120

120 ≥ 120

its not greater but its equal which means it is a possible solution
