Question 18

Multiple Choice

You plan to invest up to $60,000 in two different interest-bearing accounts. Each account is to contain at least $8000. Moreover, one account should have at least three times the amount that is in the other account. Find a system of inequalities that describes the amount that you can invest in each account.


A) {x+y60,000x8000y8000x3y0\left\{ \begin{aligned}x + y & \leq 60,000 \\x & \geq 8000 \\y & \geq 8000 \\x - 3 y & \leq 0\end{aligned} \right.
B) {x+y60,000x8000y8000x3y0\left\{ \begin{aligned}x + y & \geq 60,000 \\x & \geq 8000 \\y & \geq 8000 \\x - 3 y & \leq 0\end{aligned} \right.
C) {x+y60,000x8000y8000x3y0\left\{ \begin{aligned}x + y & \geq 60,000 \\x & \leq 8000 \\y & \leq 8000 \\x - 3 y & \geq 0\end{aligned} \right.
D) {x+y60,000x8000y8000x3y0\left\{ \begin{aligned}x + y & \leq 60,000 \\x & \geq 8000 \\y & \geq 8000 \\x - 3 y & \geq 0\end{aligned} \right.
E) {x+y60,000x8000y8000x3y0\left\{ \begin{aligned}x + y & \geq 60,000 \\x & \geq 8000 \\y & \geq 8000 \\x - 3 y & \geq 0\end{aligned} \right.
