To find:
1. To write a system of linear inequalities that describes the possible numbers of packages of each kind of package.
2. To graph the system and label the corner points.
Answer to Problem 60AYU
Solution:
Explanation of Solution
Formula Used:
Given:
Cashews | Peanuts | |
Lower priced packages | 4oz | 8oz |
Quality packages | 6oz | 6oz |
Store has of cashews and of peanuts.
Calculation:
Begin by assigning symbols for the two variables.
Because and represents the number of packages, the only meaningful values of and are non–negative.
Therefore,
From the given data and the formula used we get
Therefore, a system of linear inequalities that describes the possible amounts of each investment are
2. The graph of the system and corner points are illustrated in the figure below.
