Question

the soccer team is conducting a fundraiser selling long-sleeved t-shirts for $14 and short-sleeved t-shirts for $10. so far the team has sold less than $200 worth of the two types of t-shirts. which inequality models this situation, where x is the number of long-sleeved t-shirts they have sold, and y, the number of short-sleeved t-shirts they have sold?
$\bigcirc$ $x + y < 200$
$\bigcirc$ $x + y > 200$
$\bigcirc$ $14x + 10y > 200$
$\bigcirc$ $14x + 10y < 200$

Explanation:

Step1: Define total revenue

Total revenue from long-sleeved shirts: $14x$, from short-sleeved shirts: $10y$.

Step2: Set up inequality

Total sales are less than $200$, so sum revenues < 200.
Expression: $14x + 10y < 200$

Answer:

D. $14x + 10y < 200$
