Question

PLEASE HELP ME

Kathy is mixing fruit punch in a 32-cup punch bowl for a party. She plans to add at least 20 cups of fruit juice to the bowl before adding ginger ale.

Identify the graph that represents the amount of fruit juice and ginger ale she can use, and then identify a valid solution. (The graph shows the overlapping solution region only, not the shading for each inequality.)

Answer 1

a is the correct answer!

Explanation:

a.p.e.x

Answer 2

A. Valid solution: (24, 4)

Explanation:

The wording "at least 20 cups of fruit juice" means the feasible solutions will be to the right of the line showing 20 cups of fruit juice. (Graphs A and D only.)

Any possible solution will be a point in the shaded area, hence the ordered pair (fruit juice, ginger ale) must have a first value that is between 20 and 32. Only Graph A has such a "valid solution."
