Question

Prompt

To win a game show, a contestant needs to score at least

70

total points from two rounds. Correct responses in the first round are worth

3

points each, and correct responses in the second round are worth

9

points each. Which inequality models this situation, where

f

is the number of correct responses in the first round and

s

is the number of correct responses in the second round?

f + s \leq 70

3 f + 9 s \geq 70

9 f + s \geq 70

9 f + 3 s \leq 70
