Cans of lemonade sell for $2 each and bottles of water sell for $1.50 each. The club needs to raise at least $500 to cover the cost of renting costumes. The students can accept a maximum of 360 cans and bottles.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Cost of lemonade can = $ 2

Cost of water bottle = $ 1.50

Cost of renting costumes = $ 500

The students can accept a maximum of 360 cans and bottles

Cans of lemonade sold = 144

2. Write a system of inequalities that can be used to represent this situation.

w = bottle of water

l = can of lemonade

2l + 1.5w ≥ 500

w + l ≤ 360

3. What is the least number of bottles of water that must be sold to cover the cost of renting costumes? Justify your answer.

Replacing l with 144, that were the cans sold, on the 1st inequality

2l + 1.5w ≥ 500

2(144) + 1.5w ≥ 500

288 + 1.5w ≥ 500

1.5w ≥ 500 - 288

1.5w ≥ 212

w ≥ 212/1.5

w ≥ 141.33

The drama club must sold at least 142 bottles of water in addition the the 144 cans of lemonade already sold, to cover the cost of renting costumes.
