Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct inequality to represent the situation is $2x + 5y \leq 10$, indicating the total time spent on hats and afghans cannot exceed 10 hours. For 7 hats and 2 afghans, the time required is $2(7) + 5(2) = 24$ hours, which exceeds the available 10 hours, so she cannot make 7 hats and 2 afghans in the time allowed.
