A coach needs both small and large cones to set up an obstacle course. The coach knows there are fewer than 30 cones in the storage room. The coach needs at least a dozen large cones. Let x represent the number of small cones and y represent the number of large cones.

Which inequalities model the situation?


Select each correct answer.

A) y > 12
B) y ≥ 12
C) x + y ≤ 30
D) x > 0
E) x + y < 30

Respuesta :

The answer would be B.) y ≥ 12

The reason being he needs AT LEAST 12 large cones, and no specific number of small cones. So, the least amount he can have is 12, but he can have anymore than 12 with no problem. So, that being said he can have:

y(large cones) ≥ (greater than OR equal to) 12 (the least he can have)

y≥12

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

B) y ≥ 12

D) x > 0

E) x + y < 30   those are 3 correct answers took the test its all 3 there.
