School rules permit no fewer than 2 teachers per 25 students. There are at least 245 students enrolled in the school. If x represent teachers and y represents students, which system of linear inequalities can be used to determine the possible number of teachers and students at the school?
2y ≥ 25x and y ≥ 245
2y ≤ 25x and y ≥ 245
25y ≤ 2x and y ≥ 245
25y ≥ 2x and y ≥ 245

Answer:

  (b)  2y ≤ 25x and y ≥ 245

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the teacher/student ratio to be at least 2/25, so ...

  x/y ≥ 2/25

  25x ≥ 2y . . . . . multiply by 25y

  2y ≤ 25x . . . . . swap sides to get the form used in answer choice B

The other inequality says the number of students is at least 245:

  y ≥ 245

Answer:

B- 2y ≤ 25x and y ≥ 245
