Question

Jeff bought a bottle of water for $2. He also bought some hot dogs for $3 each. Jeff did not spend more than $14 on the hot dogs and the bottle of water. Which inequality can be used to find h, the number of hot dogs that Jeff could have bought? A.3h−2≤14 B.3h+2≤14 C.3h−2≥14 D.3h+2≥14

Answer 1

D. 3h + 2 ≥ 14

Explanation:

Cost of Bottle water = $2

Cost of Hot dogs = $3

Number of hot dogs bought = h

Total cost of hot dogs = price × quantity

= 3 * h

= 3h

Jeff did not spend more than $14

Total cost of bottle water and hot dogs

3h + 2 ≥14

The correct answer is D

D. 3h + 2 ≥ 14
