Q. Noah, a mechanic, earns $23 for every oil change he performs and $62 for every tune-up. He needs to earn over $1,500 today to be able to pay the rent for his business and still have some money left over.Select the inequality in standard form that describes this situation. Use the given numbers and the following variables.x= the number of oil changes Noah will do todayy= the number of tune-ups Noah will do todayChoices:(A) 23x+62y>1,500(B) 62x+23y≥1,500(C) 62x+23y>1,500(D) 23x+62y≥1,500
Calculate oil change earnings: Noah earns $23 per oil change.Number of oil changes: xTotal earnings from oil changes: 23×x=23x
Calculate tune-up earnings: Noah earns $62 per tune-up.Number of tune-ups: yTotal earnings from tune-ups: 62×y=62y
Total earnings needed: Total earnings needed: over $1,500. Total earnings from oil changes and tune-ups: 23x+62y Inequality to represent Noah's earnings being over $1,500: 23x + 62y > 1,500
