Question

Amy is in school learning to be a welder. she spends long hours studying (and drinking coffee), and long hours practicing in the hot, dirty shop (and therefore takes frequent showers). amy has $70.00 a month to spend on the soap and coffee she needs to function properly. draw amy\'s budget constraint, assuming the soap costs $3.50, and the coffee costs $14.00 a pound. note, if a point will not go where you want to put it, try placing the other endpoint there.

Answer 1

For this case, the first thing you should do is define the variables of the problem.
 We have then:
 x: amount of soap.
 y: amount of coffee.
 The budgetary restriction in this case is the following inequality:
 3.50x + 14y <= 70
 answer:
 3.50x + 14y <= 70
