The networking organization you joined is throwing a party. you are in charge of buying the chips, which cost $2.50 per bag and salsa, which costs $4 per jar. the chips & salsa budget you are given totals $60. the inequality 2.5x + 4y less than or equal to 60 represents the possible combinations of chips (x) and salsa (y) you can buy. which of the following does not represent a solution to the inequality? 10 bags of chips and 2 jars of salsa 20 bags of chips and 2 jars of salsa 14 bags of chips and 5 jars of salsa 18 bags of chips and 6 jars of salsa

The given inequality is 2.5x + 4y ≤ 60. x is the bags of chips and y is the jars of salsa,

Replace x and y in the equation with the possible answers and solve:

A) 10 chips and 2 salsas:

2.5(10) +4(2) =  25 + 8 = 32 This is less than 60 so is a solution.

B) 20 chips, 2 salsas:

2.5(20) + 4(2) = 50 + 8 = 58, this is less than 60 so  is a solution.

C) 14 chips, 5 salsas:

2.5(14) + 4(5) = 35 + 20 = 55, this is less than 60 so is a solution.

D) 18 chips , 6 salsas:

2.5(18) + 4(6) = 45 + 24 = 69, this is greater than 60 so is not a solution.

18 bags of chips and 6 jars of salsa is not a solution.
