Q. At a pancake breakfast, children are served 1 pancake and adults are served 3 pancakes. Together, they can be served at most 108 pancakes, the total number made by the chef.Select the inequality in standard form that describes this situation. Use the given numbers and the following variables.x= the number of childreny= the number of adultsChoices:(A) 1+x+3+y≤108(B) x+3y≤108(C) x+3y≥108(D) 1+x+3+y≥108
Children's Pancakes Calculation: Children get 1 pancake each, so for x children, that's 1×x pancakes.
Adults' Pancakes Calculation: Adults get 3 pancakes each, so for y adults, that's 3∗y pancakes.
Total Pancakes Calculation: The total number of pancakes served is the sum of pancakes for children and adults, which is 1×x+3×y.
Maximum Pancakes Limit: The chef made at most 108 pancakes, so the total number of pancakes served cannot exceed 108.
Inequality Representation: The inequality that represents this situation is x+3y≤108.
