Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of chocolate chip cookies = x

Number of oatmeal brownie cookies = y

Bake chocolate chip cookies up to 20 dozen = x≤ 20

Bake oatmeal brownies up to 40 dozen= y≤40

Total cookies = x + y ≤ 50

Number of oatmeal brownie will be no more than three times the number of chocolate chip= y≤3x

From the inequality:

                        X + y=50                          

                         y = 3x

By putting the value of y, we get

    x + 3x = 50

     4x = 50

    X = 12.5

By putting the value of x=12.5 in equation y = 3x, we get

Y = 3(12.5)

    = 37.5

Craig should make 12.5 dozen chocolate chip and 37.5 dozen oatmeal brownies in order to make more money.

Vesna [10]
4/5x + 4/3 = 2x....there are 2 ways to do this...one with fractions, one without.

with :
4/5x + 4/3 = 2x
4/3 = 2x - 4/5x
4/3 = 10/5x - 4/5x
4/3 = 6/5x
4/3 * 5/6 = x
20/18 = x
10/9 = x

without :
4/5x + 4/3 = 2x....multiply by common denominator of 15
12x + 20 = 30x
20 = 30x - 12x
20 = 18x
20/18 = x
10/9 = x
