Q. At a pancake breakfast, children are served 11 pancake and adults are served 33 pancakes. Together, they can be served at most 108108 pancakes, the total number made by the chef.\newlineSelect the inequality in standard form that describes this situation. Use the given numbers and the following variables.\newlinex=x = the number of children\newliney=y = the number of adults\newlineChoices:\newline(A) 1+x+3+y1081 + x + 3 + y \leq 108\newline(B) x+3y108x + 3y \leq 108\newline(C) x+3y108x + 3y \geq 108\newline(D) 1+x+3+y1081 + x + 3 + y \geq 108
  1. Children's Pancakes Calculation: Children get 11 pancake each, so for xx children, that's 1×x1\times x pancakes.
  2. Adults' Pancakes Calculation: Adults get 33 pancakes each, so for yy adults, that's 3y3*y pancakes.
  3. Total Pancakes Calculation: The total number of pancakes served is the sum of pancakes for children and adults, which is 1×x+3×y1\times x + 3\times y.
  4. Maximum Pancakes Limit: The chef made at most 108108 pancakes, so the total number of pancakes served cannot exceed 108108.
  5. Inequality Representation: The inequality that represents this situation is x+3y108x + 3y \leq 108.
