Answer:
4. 2.5x +15y > 510
5. y > 10
Step-by-step explanation:
4. The revenue from each of x cupcakes is 2.50, so the total revenue from cupcake sales is 2.50x.
The revenue from each of y cakes is 15.00, so the total revenue from cake sales is 15.00y.
The total revenue from sales of cupcakes and cakes is more than 510, so we can write the inequality ...
2.5x +15y > 510 . . . . possible combinations of cakes and cupcakes
__
5. For x=144 the constraint on y is ...
2.5(144) +15y > 510
360 +15y > 510
15y > 150
y > 10 . . . . possible number of cakes sold
