For tax purposes, a large corporation wants to spend more than $10,000,000 on charitable works. The company is told that, in a developing country, it can build a hospital for $1,500,000 and a school for $11,000. Select the inequality in standard form that describes this situation. Use the given numbers and the following variables. x = the number of hospitals built y = the number of schools builtChoices:(A) 1,500,000x + 11,000y > 10,000,000(B) 11,000x + 1,500,000y > 10,000,000(C) 11,000x + 1,500,000y < 10,000,000(D) 1,500,000x + 11,000y < 10,000,000
Q. For tax purposes, a large corporation wants to spend more than $10,000,000 on charitable works. The company is told that, in a developing country, it can build a hospital for $1,500,000 and a school for $11,000. Select the inequality in standard form that describes this situation. Use the given numbers and the following variables. x = the number of hospitals built y = the number of schools builtChoices:(A) 1,500,000x+11,000y>10,000,000(B) 11,000x+1,500,000y>10,000,000(C) 11,000x+1,500,000y<10,000,000(D) 1,500,000x+11,000y<10,000,000
Calculate Hospital Cost: Determine the cost to build one hospital and the variable associated with it.Cost to build one hospital: $1,500,000Variable for the number of hospitals: xTotal cost for hospitals: 1,500,000x
Calculate School Cost: Determine the cost to build one school and the variable associated with it.Cost to build one school: $11,000Variable for the number of schools: yTotal cost for schools: 11,000y
Combine Total Costs: Combine the costs for hospitals and schools to form an expression for the total charitable spending.Total spending on charitable works: 1,500,000x+11,000y
Formulate Spending Inequality: Formulate the inequality based on the corporation's goal to spend more than $10,000,000. The corporation wants to spend more than $10,000,000, so the inequality will be: 1,500,000x + 11,000y > 10,000,000
