One-Up Games just started selling a new game console for $300 and games for the new console for $50 each. The store set a sales goal of $7,000 for Saturday and Sunday combined. Unfortunately, the store gets only 10 consoles per day from the manufacturer due to high demand.

Which pairs (c,g) represent possible numbers of consoles and games that would allow the store to meet its weekend sales goal?
9,88

17,36

15,54

12.5,75

The pair (9,88) is the only one that represents possible numbers of consoles and games that would allow the store to meet its weekend sales goal.

9 consoles at $300 each = $2,700
88 games at $50 each = $4,400
Total sales = $2,700 + $4,400 = $7,100
