<u>Answer:</u> Greta is correct.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Greta is correct sine you can substitute different number of people for each of the values of and y and check that each person will still plant 4 trees.

For example:

4x = 4(1) = 4 trees; and

4 x 5 = 20

but you should follow a certain pattern to increase the value of x, such that every foe every value of x, one person is able to plant 4 trees.

H-E-B buys cases of almonds and walnuts. Almonds are packaged 15 bags per case and walnuts are packaged 17 bags per case. H-E-B
Korvikt [17]

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 :
