Wendy needs to purchase 44 vases, which cost $3 each, and flowers for the vases, which cost $2 each. she has $308 to spend on her vases and flowers.

which of the following inequalities would show the maximum number of flowers, x, wendy can buy without spending more than $308?

a. $2x + $132 < $308
b. x + $44 > $308
c. $2x + $132 > $308
d. x + $44 < $308

The correct option is A. $2x + $132 < $308

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem first we have to calculate the cost of 44 vases that costs $3 each.

So, mathematically speaking:

Now that we have the total the cost of the vases, we have to add the cost of the flowers with the information given:

The expression that represents the cost of the flowers is 2x.

Finally, the sum of both costs must be less than $308.

So, the final expression is:

$2x + $132 < $308 (option a).

last one.

step-by-step explanation:

last one.

generally speaking, the others follow some sort of pattern that correlates to either linear (looks like a straight line) or sinusoidal (looks like an s).

the last one is just a random cloud of points that doesn't correlate to any particular known order.
