Martha's Bakery is baking loaves of banana bread and poppy-seed almond bread. The recipe for one loaf of banana bread calls for two cups of flour and one teasooon of baking soda. One loaf of poppy-seed almond bread reauires cups of flour and a teaspoons of baking soda. The bakery has 24 cups of flour and 26 teaspoons of baking soda in stock. Write a system of linear inequalities to model how many loaves of bread can be baked. graph the inequalities that represent how many loaves of each type of bread the bakers can make Which of the following combinations can they make based on their current supply of flour and bakine sodal Check all that apply.

01 banana bread and 5 poppy seed almond breaads

O3 banana breads and 11 poppy-seed almond breads

D 6 banana breads and 8 poppy seed aimond breads

D7 banana breads and 9 poppy-seed amond bre ads

09 banana breads and 5 poppy-seed almond breads

Final answer:

The student is seeking to determine how many loaves of two types of bread can be baked with a limited supply of ingredients, for which a system of linear inequalities based on estimated usage per loaf can be used to find the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is tasked with determining the number of loaves of banana bread and poppy-seed almond bread Martha's Bakery can bake given a limited supply of flour and baking soda. We need to establish a system of linear inequalities to model this scenario, but the question seems to be missing specific information about the requirements for the poppy-seed almond bread. Assuming hypothetical quantities of 3 cups of flour and 2 teaspoons of baking soda per loaf of poppy-seed almond bread, the inequalities would be as follows:

  • 2b + 3p ≤ 24 (flour constraint)
  • b + 2p ≤ 26 (baking soda constraint)

Where b represents the number of banana bread loaves and p represents the number of poppy-seed almond bread loaves. The graph of the inequalities would display the feasible region of the combinations of b and p that Martha's Bakery can bake. The bakery must then check which combinations of loaves fall into this region.
