Question
tucker is purchasing chocolate truffles to use as party favors. to ensure there are enough for everyone, he needs to purchase at least 223 pieces. dark chocolate truffles come in boxes of 18 pieces and milk chocolate truffles come in boxes of 22 pieces. write the inequality in standard form that describes this situation. use the given numbers and the following variables. x = the number of boxes of dark chocolate truffles y = the number of boxes of milk chocolate truffles
Step1: Definir la cantidad total
Cada caja de trufas de chocolate oscuro tiene 18 piezas, así que el número total de piezas de chocolate oscuro es $18x$. Cada caja de trufas de chocolate con leche tiene 22 piezas, así que el número total de piezas de chocolate con leche es $22y$.
Step2: Establecer la desigualdad
La cantidad total de piezas debe ser al menos 223, lo que significa que la suma de las piezas de chocolate oscuro y con leche debe ser mayor o igual a 223. Entonces, la desigualdad es $18x + 22y \geq 223$.
