Anita sells stuffed bunnies and puppies to a toy store. She sells each bunny for $8.00 and each puppy for $10.00. This week, Anita wants to sell more than 30 stuffed animals and needs to earn a minimum of $450.

Which system of inequalities can Anita use to determine the number of stuffed bunnies, x, and stuffed puppies, y, that she can sell to meet her goals?

A. x + y > 30

8x + 10y ≥ 450

B. x + y > 30

8x + 10y ≤ 450

C. x + y < 30

8x + 10y ≥ 450

D. x + y < 30

8x + 10y ≤ 450

Jacob Hayden · Answer 1

A. x + y > 30

8x + 10y ≥ 450

Step-by-step explanation:

x = bunnies

y = puppies

X + Y = more than 30 = X+Y >30

1 bunny equals $8.00

1 puppy equals $10.00

so, 8x + 10y = at least $450 = 8x + 10y ≥ $450
