Respuesta :

Given,

The French fries has 25 calorie.

The chicken wings have 100 calorie.

The total calorie count from the French fries and chicken wings to be less than 700 calories.

Required:

The inequality equation describing the serving.

Here, f be the number of French fries.

c be the number of chicken wings.

The total calorie is calculated as:

[tex]\begin{gathered} Number\text{ of french fries}\times calorie\text{ of each french fries+} \\ Number\text{ of chicken wings}\times calorie\text{ of each chicken wings<}700 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substituting the values then,

[tex]\begin{gathered} f\times25+c\times100<700 \\ 25f+100c<700 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, inequality equation describing the serving is 25f + 100c < 700.
