Question

A farmer wants to plant peas and carrots on no more than 400 acres of his farm. If x represents the number of acres of peas and y represents the number of acres of carrots for solution (x, y), then which is a viable solution?
A.) (−125, 500)
B.) (250, 150)
C.) (400, −10)
D.) (1, 400)

Answer 1

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

It doesn't make sense for either x or y to be negative because we are talking about x representing the number of acres and y representing another number of acres and that they should add up to no more than 400.

So I'm not going to look at A or C.

B looks good 250+150=400

D almost looks good 1+400=401; the problem with this answer is that is more than 400
