x ----> the number of candy pack that Brian can buy

y ---> the number of gum pack that Brian can buy

we know that

The inequality that represent this situation is

`x+0.75y\leq 75`

The solution is the shaded area below the solid line
`x+0.75y=75`

The slope of the solid line is negative

using a graphing tool

The solution is the shaded area

Remember that the value of x and the value of y cannot be a negative number
