Question 1140712: An art store offers prints in two sizes. The store earns $15 on each small print sold and $25 on each large print sold. The owner needs to make a daily profit of at least $700 in order to cover costs. Due to equipment limitations, the number of small prints made must be more than three times the number of large prints.
Given that x represents the number of small prints sold and y represents the number of large prints sold, determine which inequalities represent the constraints for this situation.
