Question

Gabriella and her children went into a restaurant where they sell hotdogs for $4 each and tacos for $2 each. Gabriella has $30 to spend and must buy a minimum of 9 hotdogs and tacos altogether. Also, she must buy no less than 2 hotdogs. If xx represents the number of hotdogs purchased and yy represents the number of tacos purchased, write and solve a system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.

Answer 1

A possible solution to the inequality is 2 hotdogs and 8 tacos.

Let x represents the number of hotdogs purchased and y represents the number of tacos purchased.

Gabriella has $30 to spend and must buy a minimum of 9 hotdogs and tacos altogether.

Hence:

4x + 2y ≤ 30    (1)

x + y ≥ 9      (2)

Also:

x ≥ 2   (3)

A possible solution to the inequality is 2 hotdogs and 8 tacos.
