Question

I'm going to mark whoever gets it right as brainliest Fred's coffee shop sells two blends of beans at the following prices. a) House Blend ($3.50/lb) b) Exotic Blend ($4.00/lb). House blend is 1/2 Costa Rican beans and 1/2 Ethiopian beans. Exotic blend is 1/4 Costa Rican beans and 3/4 Ethiopian beans. Every day Fred receives 200 lbs of Costa Rican Beans and 330 lbs of Ethiopian beans. Which inequality is a constraint? * 1/2x+1/4y or = to 530 x < or = 200

Answer 1

Answer:

(1/2)x + (1/4)y <= 200

Step-by-step explanation:

If

x = # of lbs of House blend he makes/sells a day

y = # of lbs of Exotic blend he makes/sells a day

then constraints are

(1/2)x + (1/4)y <= 200  ....................(1)

x+y <= 530  .....................................(2)

The exact answer choices are not very clear from the question, but either (or both) (1) or (2) must be one of them.  If not, please edit question or add a comment to show the answer choices.
