A grill at a barbeque restaurant will be used to cook chicken logs that are 1.25 pounds each and racks of ribs that
are 7 pounds each. No more than 110 pounds of chicken legs and racks of ribs will be cooked on the grill. Which
inequality represents all possible combinations of x, the number of chicken legs that will be cooked on the grill,
and y, the number of racks of ribs that will also be cooked?
A) 1.25x + 7y s 110
B) 1.25x + 7y > 110
C) 7x +1.25y< 110
D) 7x + 1.25y > 110

Answer 1

A is the answer

Explanation:

1.25 per every Chicken leg

Chicken leg=x

7 per every Rack of ribs

Rack of ribs= y

1.25x+7y<110

Answer 2

A.
`1.25x + 7y \le 110`

Explanation:

No more than 110 lb total will be grilled. That means that the amount of meat that will be grilled is equal to or less than 110 lb.

`total~weight \le 110`

The total weight is made up of the weight of the chicken legs plus the weight of the racks of ribs.

1 chicken leg weighs 1.25 lb.

x chicken legs weigh 1.25x.

1 rack of ribs weighs 7 lb.

y racks of ribs weight 7y.

The total weight of the meat is

1.25x + 7y.

That weigh must be less than or equal to 110 lb.

`1.25x + 7y \le 110`

Answer: A.
`1.25x + 7y \le 110`
