    Which of the following represents a solution to the inequality?

    200 pounds of hamburgers and 140 pounds of hot dogs

    150 pounds of hamburgers and 60 pounds of hot dogs

    100 pounds of hamburgers and 240 pounds of hot dogs

    240 pounds of hamburgers and 40 pounds of hot dogs

    x = hamburger; y = hot dog

    3x + 2x < 600

    3 (200) + 2 (140) = 600 + 280 = 880 No.

    3 (150) + 2 (60) = 450 + 120 = 570 YES.

    3 (100) + 2 (240) = 300 + 480 = 780 No.

    3 (240) + 2 (40) = 720 + 80 = 800 No.

    150 pounds of hamburgers and 60 pounds of hot dogs
