Linear Programming Practice

Sarah makes small purses (x) and big purses (y). She can make no more than 8 purses a week.
Which inequality represents the situation?

• x + y ≤ 8
• x + y ≤ 6
• 2x + 3y ≤ 6
• x + y ≤ 10

It takes Sarah 2 hours to make small purses and 3 hours to make big purses. She has a maximum of 18 hours a week. Which inequality represents this situation?

• 2x + 3y ≤ 18
• x + y ≤ 6
• x + y ≤ 9
• 3x + 2y ≤ 18

• (0, 0), (0, 6), (6, 2), (8, 0)
• (0, 0), (6, 0), (2, 6), (0, 8)

• 400
• 240

Rachel owns a car and a moped. She has at most 12 gallons of gas to be used between the car and the moped.  The car's tank holds at most 10 gallons and the moped's 3 gallons. The mileage for the car is 20 mpg and for the moped is 100 mpg. What are the variables you need to define?

• x is gas, y is mileage
• x is car, y is moped
• x is gas, y is moped
• x is car, y is mileage

Write the system of inequalities
Carlos works at a movie theater selling tickets. The theater has 300 seats and charges $7.50 for adults and $5.50 for children. The theater expects to make at least $2000 for each showing.  

• x+y≤300
  7.5x+5.5y≥2000
• x+y<300
  7.5x+5.5y≥2000
• x+y≤300
  7.5x+5.5y≤2000
• x+y>2000
  7.5x+5.5y≤300
