Which inequality represents this situation?

nick is making a fruit salad. he buys apples for $1.29 per pound and oranges for $1.35 per pound. he spends no more than $12.

let x represent the number of pounds of apples that nick buys. let y represent the number of pounds of oranges that nick buys.

1.29x+1.35y≥121.29x+1.35y≥12

1.29x+1.35y> 121.29x+1.35y> 12

1.29x+1.35y< 121.29x+1.35y< 12

1.29x+1.35y≤12

Option D. 1.29x + 1.35y ≤ 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Nick is making a fruit salad.

He buys apples per pound for = $1.29

He buys oranges per pound for = $1.35

He spend no more than $12.00 or we can say less than equal to $12

Let x represent the number of pounds of apples that Nick buys and y represent the number of pounds of oranges.

Cost of x pounds of apples = $1.29x

Cost of y pounds of oranges = $1.35y

Total cost = 1.29x + 1.35y

Total cost should be less than equal to $12.00

Therefore, inequality will be 1.29x + 1.35y ≤ 12

Option D. is the answer.

1.29x+1.35y≤12

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of money spent on apples is: 1.29x

The total amount of money spent on oranges is: 1.35y  

No more than $12 means $12 or less, mathematically: ≤ 12

Combining this, we get: 1.29x+1.35y≤12
