X equals 8 bu i dont know the slope
We must find UNIQUE combinations because choosing a,b,c,d... is the same as d,c,b,a...etc. For this type of problem you use the "n choose k" formula...
n!/(k!(n-k)!), n=total number of choices available, k=number of choices made..
In this case:
20!/(10!(20-10)!)
20!/(10!*10!)

9+6(2^2+4)
9+6(4+4)
9+(6)(8)
9+48

x is case of almonds and y is case of walnuts.
Almonds are packaged 15 bags per case and walnuts are packaged 17 bags per case.
H-E-B orders no more than 200 bags of almonds and walnuts at a time.
So,
x + y < 200
where x and y refers to the number of bags
=======================================================
H-E-B pays $24 per case of almonds and $27 per case of walnuts, but will not order more than $300 total at any one time.
But keep in mind that : Almonds are packaged 15 bags per case and walnuts are packaged 17 bags per case.
So,
24 * (x/15) + 27 * (y/17) < 300
===========================================================
The constraints are:
x + y < 200
(24/15) x + (27/17) y < 300
So, the graph of the previous constraints is as following :
