Question

Gary is baking pretzels for his sister’s party. Some pretzels will be regular and some pretzels will be whole grain.

Answer 1

Answer:

The constraints are

$x+y\geq 14$

$2y+x\leq 20$

$x\geq 0$

$y\geq 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> the number of dozens of regular pretzels.

y-------> the number of dozens of whole-grain pretzels.

we know that

$x+y\geq 14$ --------> inequality A

$2y+x\leq 20$ -------> inequality B

$x\geq 0$ -------> inequality C  (cannot be a negative number)

$y\geq 0$ ------> inequality D  (cannot be a negative number)

The solution is the triangular shaded area
