Q. Jenny wants to save some low-resolution photos and some high-resolution photos on her flash drive. Each low-resolution photo takes up 1MB and each high-resolution photo takes up 4MB. In total, they cannot exceed the total storage space available on the drive, which is 685MB.Select the inequality in standard form that describes this situation. Use the given numbers and the following variables.x= the number of low-resolution photosy= the number of high-resolution photosChoices:(A) 4x+y≥685(B) 4x+y≤685(C) x+4y≤685(D) x+4y≥685
Calculate Low-Resolution Storage: Determine the storage space used by each low-resolution photo. Each low-resolution photo takes up 1MB. If x represents the number of low-resolution photos, then the total storage space used by low-resolution photos is xMB.
Calculate High-Resolution Storage: Determine the storage space used by each high-resolution photo. Each high-resolution photo takes up 4MB. If y represents the number of high-resolution photos, then the total storage space used by high-resolution photos is 4yMB.
Combine Storage Spaces: Combine the storage space used by both low-resolution and high-resolution photos. The total storage space used by both types of photos is x MB for low-resolution photos plus 4y MB for high-resolution photos, which gives us x+4y MB.
Apply Storage Limit Constraint: Apply the storage limit constraint. The total storage space used by both types of photos cannot exceed the total storage space available on the flash drive, which is 685 MB. Therefore, the inequality that describes this situation is x+4y≤685.
