Answer:

E. x ≥ 5y

A. y ≤ 25

B. x + y ≥50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of key chains.

Let y represent the number of thumb drives.

As we know that:

  • She wants to use at least 5 times as many key chains as thumb drives

<=> x ≥ 5y

  • She has 25 thumb drives

<=> y ≤ 25  

  • Trisha needs to make at least 50 gift bags for an event. Each gift bag will contain at least 1 thumb drive or key chain

<=> x + y ≥50

So inequalities are among the constraints for this situation are:

x ≥ 5y

y ≤ 25

x + y ≥50
