Hi I need help
John is packing a package for 8 people (including himself). He wants each person to have at least 2 slices of cakes and 1 drink. Each cake box containing 2 slices of cakes has a volume of 500 cubic centimeter and 1 drink has a volume of 220 cubic centimeters. If the package can hold a volume of 7 litres, find the possible number of drinks in the package.
I tried to solve:
let x be the number of slice of cake and y be the number of drink.
2x+y=1
so 8 person 8(2x+8y)=8
500(x/2)+220y=7000 or 500x+200y=7000
however the question is asking for inequalities and i could not found the correct equation. Please advise.
Thank you
