Question

judy is baking desserts for a potluck. at least 34 servings of dessert will be required. for every batch of brownies she bakes, she will get 14 servings, and every pie will yield 9 servings.
write the inequality in standard form that describes this situation. use the given numbers and the following variables.
x = the number of batches of brownies
y = the number of pies

Explanation:

Step1: Definir las contribuciones de servings

Cada lote de brownies (\(x\)) da 14 servings, así que las servings de brownies son \(14x\). Cada pastel (\(y\)) da 9 servings, así que las servings de pasteles son \(9y\).

Step2: Establecer la desigualdad

Se necesita al menos 34 servings en total, lo que significa que la suma de servings de brownies y pasteles debe ser mayor o igual a 34. Entonces, la desigualdad es \(14x + 9y \geq 34\).

Answer:

\(14x + 9y \geq 34\)
