    Marcela is having a presidential debate watching party with all of her friends, She will be making chicken wings and hot dogs. Each chicken wing costs $2 to make and each hot dog costs $3. She needs to spend at least $500. Marcela knows that she will make more than 50 chicken wings and hot dogs combined. She also knows that she will make less than 120 chicken wings and less that 100 hot dogs. What are her inequalities?

    Let c be the number of chicken wings and h be the number of hot dogs. Set up the given inequalities:
    1. c + h > 50 Marcela knows that she will make more than 50 chicken wings and hot dogs combined.
    2. 2c + 3h >= 500 She needs to spend at least $500
    3. c < 120 She also knows that she will make less than 120 chicken wings
    4. h < 100 and less that 100 hot dogs
