a university will spend at most $4,500 to buy monitors and keyboards for a computer lab.Each monitor will cost $250, and each keyboard will cost $50

which inequality represents all possible combinations of x, the number of monitors, and y,the number of keyboards,the university can buy for the computer lab?

1 answer

The cost of buying monitors can be represented by the inequality 250x, where x represents the number of monitors.
The cost of buying keyboards can be represented by the inequality 50y, where y represents the number of keyboards.
Since the university will spend at most $4,500, the total cost of buying monitors and keyboards should be less than or equal to $4,500.
Therefore, the inequality that represents all possible combinations of x and y is:

250x + 50y ≤ 4500
