Problema Solution

You are buying two types of clothing to sell in your clothing store: T-shirts and sweatshirts. You have $1250 in your budget to spend on purchasing the clothing, and you want to buy no more than 100 T-shirts and sweatshirts. One T-shirt cost $8 and one sweatshirt cost $15.

Let x be the number of T-shirts and let y be the number of sweatshirts you are buying. Write a system of inequalities for the possible number of T-shirts and sweatshirts you can buy.

Answer provided by our tutors

you want to buy no more than 100 T-shirts and sweatshirts:


x + y <= 100


you have $1250 in your budget to spend on purchasing the clothing:


8x + 15y <= 1250


the system of inequalities is:


x + y <= 100


8x + 15y <= 1250
