STEP 1:
BAGS OF FOUR
find number of bags needed to total 74 apples

= 74 ÷ 4 apples/bag
= 18.5 bags

*must round up to 19 bags because we cannot buy a partial bag

STEP 2:
BAGS OF FOUR
calculate price of 19 bags of 4 apples per bag

= 19 bags * $5/bag
= $95 for 19 bags of 4 apples/bag

STEP 3:
BAGS OF SIX
find number of bags needed to total 74 apples

= 74 ÷ 6 apples per bag
= 12.3333 bags needed

*must round up to 13 bags because we cannot buy a partial bag

STEP 4:
BAGS OF SIX

calculate price of 13 bags of 6 apples per bag

= 13 bags * $7 per bag
= $91 for 13 bags of 6 apples/bag


ANSWER: The smallest cost to buy 74 apples is $91.

Hope this helps! :)

I need help on this problem is the answer A
vladimir1956 [14]
Well, I'm not completely sure, because I don't know the formal definition
of "corner" in this work.  It may not be how I picture a 'corner'.

Here's what I can tell you about the choices:

A).  (0, 8)
This is definitely a corner of the feasible region.
It's the point where the first and third constraints cross.
So it's not the answer.

B).  (3.5, 0)
This is ON the boundary line between the feasible and non-feasible
regions. But it's not a point where two of the constraints cross, so
to me, it's not what I would call a 'corner'.

C).  (8, 0)
Definitely not a corner, no matter how you define a 'corner'.
This point is deep inside the non-feasible zone, and it doesn't
touch any point in the feasible zone. 
So tome, this looks like probably the best answer.

D).  (5, 3)
This is definitely a corner.  It's the point of intersection (the solution)
of the two equations that are the first two constraints. 

The feasible region is a triangle.
The three vertices of the triangle are  (0,8) (choice-A), 
(0,-7) (not a choice),  and  (5,3) (choice-D) .
region is a triangle
