Detailed Solution & Explanation

Let x\displaystyle x be the number of experienced persons and y\displaystyle y be the number of fresh persons.

Let's write the inequality:
- Experienced persons do 5\displaystyle 5 units of work daily, so x\displaystyle x persons do 5x\displaystyle 5x units.
- Fresh persons do 3\displaystyle 3 units of work daily, so y\displaystyle y persons do 3y\displaystyle 3y units.
- The total daily work is 5x+3y\displaystyle 5x + 3y.
- The daily output must be *at least* (more than or equal to) 30\displaystyle 30 units:
5x+3y305x + 3y \ge 30

This matches Option B.

Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer.
