Question

A company has a $150 budget to provide lunch for its 20 employees. The options are to provide either roast beef sandwiches, which cost $5 apiece, or tuna sandwiches, which also cost $5 apiece. The company also wants to use the entire budget. Suppose r represents the number of roast beef sandwiches it provides and t represents the number of tuna sandwiches. Which statement is correct?

Answer 1

um well you forgot to include the statements but the company would be able to afford 30 sandwiches

Answer 2

i know im vv late but i dont want anyone to get it wrong. anyway if your on e2020 i believe the correct answer is D. The company cannot provide lunch for all 20 employees and use the entire budget because there is no solution to the system of equations mc019-r+t=20 and 5r+5t=150
