Answer:
The graph in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
f -----> the number of pounds of fertilizer
s ----> the number of pounds of seeds
we know that
The inequality that represent the situation is
using a graphing tool
see the attached figure
The solution is the triangular shaded area
We have been given that in 1983, the per capita consumption was 39.7 pounds, and in 1989 it was 47 pounds.
Let us assume t=0 corresponds to year 1980.
Hence, we can express the given information as ordered pairs as (3,39.7) and (9,47).
We can to find a linear function passing through these points. Let us first find slope of the linear function:
We can write the required linear function as:
Upon simplifying this, we get:
In order to find per capita consumption in 1995, we need to substitute t=15 in this function.
Therefore, we would expect the per capita consumption of chicken in 1995 to be 54.3.
