Answer:

Should be used 28 pounds of pecans and 32 pounds of chocolate candies

Let

x -----> pounds of pecans used

y ----> pounds of chocolate candies used

we know that

-----> equation A

----->  -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

Using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (28,32)

see the attached figure

therefore

Should be used 28 pounds of pecans and 32 pounds of chocolate candies

Just find the vertex and then compare with graph

#a

  • y=2x²-8
  • y=2(x-0)²-8

Parabola opening upwards

  • Vertex at (0,-8)

Graph 3

#2

  • y=(x+3)²+0

Vertex at (-3,0)

Graph IV

#3

  • y=-2(x-4)²+8

Parabola opening downwards as a is -ve

Graph I

#4

One graph is left

  • Graph Ii

Answer: x ≤ 16    y≥ 16    

Step-by-step explanation:

-150x ≥ -2400   divide both sides by -150 and the sign will flip because you                                                         x≤16           diving by a negative number

-336 ≥ -21y

y ≥ 16
