Answer:


8x+6y\leq 50

Explanation:

Let

x------> the number of DVDs

y------> the number of CDs

we know that


8x+6y\leq 50 -------> inequality that represent the situation

The solution is the shaded area below the solid line between the positive values of x and y

The equation of the line is
8x+6y=50

The slope of the line is negative

The y-intercept of the line is the point
(0,8.33)

The x-intercept of the line is the point
(6.25,0)

The solution is the triangular area in the attached figure
