Formulate the situation as a system of inequalities. (Let x represent the number of goats the farmer can raise and y represent t

he number of llamas.) A rancher raises goats and llamas on his 800-acre ranch. Each goat needs 4 acres of land and requires $110 of veterinary care per year, while each llama needs 10 acres of land and requires $88 of veterinary care per year. If the rancher can afford no more than $14,520 for veterinary care this year, how many of each animal can he raise?

Answer: He can raise up to 40 goats and 100 llamas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write system of equations with the information given:

The space each goat needs (4) multiplied by the number of goats (x); plus The space each llama needs (10) multiplied by the number of llamas must be less or equal to the acre land available (800)

4x +10y ≤ 800 (acres)

The amount of veterinary care (in $) each  goat needs (110) multiplied by the number of goats (x); plus The  amount of veterinary care   each llama needs (88) multiplied by the number of llamas (y)must be less or equal to the Rancher's budget.(14520)

110x +88y ≤ 14,520 (cost)

Multiplying the first equation by 27.5, and subtracting the second equation to the first one:

110x + 275y ≤22,000

-

110x +88y ≤ 14,520

____________

187y ≤ 7480

y ≤ 7480/187

y ≤ 40

Replacing y in the first equation

4x +10(40) ≤ 800

4x +400 ≤ 800

4x ≤ 800-400

4x ≤ 400

x ≤ 400/4

x ≤ 100

Thaddeus models the number of hours of daylight in his town as
AfilCa [17]

Option (A) :  least: 10 hours; greatest: 14 hours

The function f(x) = sin x has all real numbers in its domain, but its range is

−1 ≤ sin x ≤ 1.

How to solve such range questions?

Such questions in which every term is in addition and its range is asked is simplest ones to solve if we know the range of each of term. This can be seen from this question

Given: d(t) = 2sin(xt) + 12

=  −1 ≤ sin (xt) ≤ 1.

=  −2≤ 2 sin (xt) ≤ 2.

=  10 ≤ 2sin (xt) + 12 ≤ 14

=   10 ≤d(t) ≤ 14

Thus  least: 10 hours; greatest: 14 hours
