Amount of money collected in the 2-day fundraiser is represented by the following equations:

  • 12x + 4y = 152 .................. (i)
  • 32x + 12y = 420 .................. (ii)

where x is the cost of a chicken lunch and y is the cost of a vegetarian lunch

Multiplying (i) with 3 and subtracting it from (ii)

36x + 12y - (32x + 12y) = 456 - 420

⇒ 4x = 36

⇒ x = 9

Put value of x in (i)

⇒ 12 × 9 + 4y = 152

⇒ 108 + 4y = 152

⇒ 4y = 44

⇒ y = 11

Hence, cost of the vegetarian meal is 11.

On a piece of paper, graph this system of inequalities. Then determine which region contains the solution to the system.
Mashutka [201]

we have

y\leq \frac{1}{4}x+3 ----> inequality 1

The solution of the inequality 1 is the shaded area below the solid red line

The solution is the region D and region C

y\geq-x+5 -----> inequality 2

The solution of the inequality 2 is the shaded area above the solid blue line

The solution is the region B and region C

The solution of the system is the common area

so

The solution is the region C

see the attached figure

therefore

the answer is the option C

Region C
