Selena has 31 days to complete her quilt for the county fair. The blue squares in the quilt can be sewn at a rate of 4 squares per day, and the white squares at a rate of 7 squares per day. The quilt can have up to 96 squares
total. The blue fabric b costs about $0.80 per square and the white fabric w costs about $1.20 per square. Selena
wants to keep costs at a minimum. Write an inequality that expresses the total number of squares to be sewn.
Select one:
a. 4b + 7w < 96
b. 4b + 7w < 31
c. b + w <31
O d. b/4 + w/7 < 31

This is not an answer, just my though process:

Step-by-step explanation:

The fastest method would use all white squares:

96 white squares would take 13.7 days to complete and cost $115.20.

The cheapest method would use all blue squares:

96 blue squares would take 24 days to complete and cost $76.80.

As we can see, time is not the limiting step, the maximum of 96 squares is limiting.

An inequality equation should use the limiting step for it to be useful. Therefore, a, is most likely the answer.

A more concise answer would be:
