Assuming that there is no wastage of beef.
Note that 3 1/2 = 7/2 = 14/4 = 14 * 1/4
This means that we can have 14 sets of quarter pound beef.
This in turn means that George can make 14 quarter pound burgers.
Gregs because Inches are greater in value than centimeters.
The region is in the first quadrant, and the axis are continuous lines, then x>=0 and y>=0
The region from x=0 to x=1 is below a dashed line that goes through the points:
P1=(0,2)=(x1,y1)→x1=0, y1=2
P2=(1,3)=(x2,y2)→x2=1, y2=3
We can find the equation of this line using the point-slope equation:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(3-2)/(1-0)
m=1/1
m=1
y-2=1(x-0)
y-2=1(x)
y-2=x
y-2+2=x+2
y=x+2
The region is below this line, and the line is dashed, then the region from x=0 to x=1 is:
y<x+2 (Options A or B)
The region from x=2 to x=4 is below the line that goes through the points:
P2=(1,3)=(x2,y2)→x2=1, y2=3
P3=(4,0)=(x3,y3)→x3=4, y3=0
We can find the equation of this line using the point-slope equation:
y-y3=m(x-x3)
m=(y3-y2)/(x3-x2)
m=(0-3)/(4-1)
m=(-3)/3
m=-1
y-0=-1(x-4)
y=-x+4
The region is below this line, and the line is continuos, then the region from x=1 to x=4 is:
y<=-x+2 (Option B)
Answer: The system of inequalities would produce the region indicated on the graph is Option B
The profit is originally 250% to maintain this you need to multiply the new unit cost by 2.5.
New unit cost $1.25. * 2.5 = $3.12.5
