Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of packages of mix A nuts and let y represent the number of packages of mix B nuts
Since 8 ounces (oz.) of peanuts is used to produce a package of mix A and 6 ounces (oz.) of peanuts is used to produce a package of mix B. Also, No more than 120 oz. of peanuts can be used each day. This can be represented by the inequality:
8x + 6y ≤ 120 (1)
4 ounces (oz.) of cashew is used to produce a package of mix A and 6 ounces (oz.) of cashew is used to produce a package of mix B. Also, No more than 96 oz. of peanuts can be used each day. This can be represented by the inequality:
4x + 6y ≤ 96 (2)
The inequality from equation 1 and equation 2 is graphed using geogebra online graphing.
If x, y ≥ 0, the solution to the problem is:
(0, 0), (0, 16), (15,0), (6, 12)
