Hannah has a total of 500 beads and uses them to make necklaces and bracelets. She uses 25 beads per necklace and 18 beads per bracelet. Which inequality represents the number of necklaces (n ) and bracelets (b ) Hannah can make?

Respuesta :

Answer:

25n + 18b ≤ 500.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the number of necklace = n and the number of bracelets = b.

It is given that the Hannah uses 25 beads per necklace and 18 beads per bracelet.

So, the number of beads per 'n' necklaces is [tex]25n[/tex] and the number of beads per 'b' bracelets is [tex]18b[/tex].

Since, the maximum number of beads can be 500.

We get the inequality,

25n + 18b ≤ 500.
