Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the constraints

The problem provides the following constraints:

  1. The store earns \$15 on each small print sold and \$25 on each large print sold. The daily profit must be at least \$700. This translates to the inequality: \[ 15x + 25y \geq 700 \]
  2. The number of small prints made must be more than three times the number of large prints. This translates to the inequality: \[ x > 3y \]

From the given inequality options, the correct inequalities are:

  • \(15x + 25y \geq 700\)
  • \(x > 3y\)
Step 2: Evaluate the combinations

We now evaluate each combination of small prints (\(x\)) and large prints (\(y\)) to see if they satisfy both inequalities.

  1. Combination \((45, 10)\):

    • Check \(15x + 25y \geq 700\): \[ 15(45) + 25(10) = 675 + 250 = 925 \geq 700 \]
    • Check \(x > 3y\): \[ 45 > 3(10) \implies 45 > 30 \]
    • Both inequalities are satisfied.
  2. Combination \((35, 15)\):

    • Check \(15x + 25y \geq 700\): \[ 15(35) + 25(15) = 525 + 375 = 900 \geq 700 \]
    • Check \(x > 3y\): \[ 35 > 3(15) \implies 35 > 45 \]
    • The second inequality is not satisfied.
  3. Combination \((30, 10)\):

    • Check \(15x + 25y \geq 700\): \[ 15(30) + 25(10) = 450 + 250 = 700 \geq 700 \]
    • Check \(x > 3y\): \[ 30 > 3(10) \implies 30 > 30 \]
    • The second inequality is not satisfied (since \(x\) must be strictly greater than \(3y\)).
  4. Combination \((40, 5)\):

    • Check \(15x + 25y \geq 700\): \[ 15(40) + 25(5) = 600 + 125 = 725 \geq 700 \]
    • Check \(x > 3y\): \[ 40 > 3(5) \implies 40 > 15 \]
    • Both inequalities are satisfied.
Step 3: Determine the valid combinations

From the above evaluations, the combinations that satisfy both inequalities are:

  • \((45, 10)\)
  • \((40, 5)\)

Final Answer

The valid combinations are: \[ \boxed{(45, 10) \text{ and } (40, 5)} \]
