The senior class at Roosevelt High School has raised a total of $1,500 for their prom. They want to spend no more than $600 of the money on decorations. The DJ costs $300.
The rest of the money will be spent on food.
Let w represent the amount spent on decorations.
Let y represent the amount spent on food.
Part A: Write a system of linear inequalities that represents the restrictions.
Part B: Graph the system of linear inequalities on a graphing calculator or by hand.
Identify one possible solution for the amount spent on decorations and the amount
spent on food. Explain why that solution was chosen.
Part C: Would the ordered pair (600, 600) be a solution to the system of inequalities?
Explain.
