Steve · Answer 1

For this item, we let x and y be the number of photographs and prints sold by the Quiet Meadow studio. The equations that would best represent the given in this item are,

20x + 25y ≤ 400

2x + 5y ≤ 60

The values of x and y are 10 and 8, respectively.

Calculating for the profit,

30 (10) + (50) (8) = 700

The answer is the last choice.
