Question

The revenue generated by the band is given by the expression 50x+150

Select all of the ordered pairs that are solutions to the inequality:

50x + 150y > 1500

(1, 10)

(10, 1)

(0, 10)

(40, 0)

Answer 1

(1, 10) (40, 0) as the person above/below stated.

Answer 2

(1, 10) and (40, 0)

Explanation:

Given expression 50x+150

inequality is

50x + 150y > 1500

it means that if we plug value of x and y from given option in 50x+150 then it should be greater than 1500.

lets check for all the option

(1,10)

50*1 + 150*10 = 50+1500 = 1550

Since , 1550 is greater than 1500, (1,10) is the solution for the inequality given

(10, 1)

50*10 + 150*1 = 500+ 150 = 650

Since , 650 is less than 1500, (10,1) is not the solution for the inequality given

(0, 10)

50*0 + 150*10 = 0 + 1500 = 1500

Since , 1500 is equal to 1500 but not greater than 1500, (0,10) is not the solution for the inequality given

(40, 0)

50*40 + 150*0 = 2000 + 0 = 2000

Since , 200 is greater than 1500, (40,0) is the solution for the inequality given above.

Thus, from the given option there are two solution for 50x + 150y > 1500

(1, 10) and (40, 0)
