A fish market charges $9 per pound for cod and $12 per flounder. Let x= the number of pounds for cod and y= the number of pounds of flounder. What is an inequality that shows you how much of each type of fish you must sell to reach a daily quota of at least $120? Graph the inequality. What are 3 possible solutions?

Can you please tell me how you solved it.

okay here is what I did to try to solve the problem use this and it will help ask me if u have anymore qestions


$9 per lb  for cod
$
12 per lb  flounder
y=X*$12
x=x*$
9
120=$9(find how many pounds bought) + $12(find how many pounds bought)

9x for charge of number of pounds for cod and 12y for charge of number of pounds of flounder at least $120 ( >= 120)
