Question

Hunter and his children went into a grocery store where they sell peaches for $1.75 each and mangos for $0.50 each. Hunter has $20 to spend and must buy at least 14 peaches and mangos altogether. Also, he must buy at least 4 peaches and no less than 12 mangos. If xx represents the number of peaches purchased and yy represents the number of mangos purchased, write and solve a system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.

Answer 1

Answer: answer: n ≤ -3 or n < -5

Explanation:

-5 + 2n ≥ -11 +5+5

2n ≥ -6 2/2 ≤ -6/2

n ≤ -3 -6 - 10n > 44

+6 +6-10n > 50 -10/-10 50/-10

n < -5

x/3-10=8

x/3=18

x=48
