Kendra is making a large salad for a party. she buys lettuce for 2.25 per pound and tomatoes for 2.65 per pound. she spends at least $8. let x represent the number of linda of lettuce that kendra buys. let y represent the number of pounds of tomatoes that kendra buys. which inequality represents this situation ?

Step-by-step explanation:

Kendra buys  x pounds lettuce.

If lettuce costs $2.25 per pound.

Then for x pounds of lettuce,

cost=2.25x

Kendra buys  y pounds tomatoes.

If tomatoes costs $2.65 per pound.

Then for y pounds of tomatoes,

cost=2.65y

So, total cost=2.25x+2.65y

Now, this total cost will be at least  $8

So, the inequality is-

0.02040816326
