Fundraiser Merchandise Sales Inequality

Very Hard Heart Of Algebra Linear Equations And Inequalities

A school is organizing a fundraiser involving the sale of two types of merchandise: T-shirts and hats. The school plans to sell T-shirts for $15 each and hats for $10 each. They aim to raise at least $1,200 in total from these sales.

The number of T-shirts sold is represented by the variable $x$, and the number of hats sold is represented by the variable $y$. The relationship between the total revenue and the number of items sold can be expressed by the inequality:

$$ 15x + 10y \geq 1200 $$

Which of the following ordered pairs $(x, y)$ satisfies the inequality?
