Banana trees yield 32 pounds of fruit per acre and strawberry plants yield 84 pounds of fruit per acre. Suppose Erica is planning a farm to have b acres of banana trees and s acres of strawberry plants. Her goal is to yields more than 1,200 pounds of fruit. What is the constraint inequality that represents this scenario?

32b + 84s ≥ 1,200

32b + 84s > 1,200

116 (f + s) > 1,200

116 (f + s) ≥ 1,200

    32b + 84s > 1,200

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Erica farm is having b acres of banana trees and s acres of strawberry plants.

    It is given Banana trees yield 32 pounds of fruit per acre and strawberry plants yield 84 pounds of fruit per acre.

    Yield of Banana tree = 32b.

    Yield of strawberry plant=84s

    Total yields = 32b+84s.

    Erica goal is to yield more than 12,000 pounds of fruits.

    So, 32b + 84s > 1,200.

    Second option is the right option.
