Answer:

C) 119.75 + 2.25p <= 500; p <= 169

Explanation:

My friend, for this problem you must realize that there is a fixed cost of 119.75 that we add always. Then $2.25 per pastry manufactured is also part of the total costs. Thus, we add both of them where p represents pastry to get 119.75 + 2.25p.

But, the question says the shopkeeper would like to stay under or be exactly at $500 for total costs. Thus, for this inequality, we set this equation as being less than equal to 500.

Solve for p by adding 119.75 on both side and dividing both sides by 2.25 afterwards and you get 169.
