Question

Which graph represents the solution set of the following situation? Andrew is buying fruit for a fruit salad. Bananas cost $1 a pound and oranges cost $2 a pound. He plans to buy at least 10 pounds of fruit and spend no more than $20. Let x represent pounds of bananas and let y represent pounds of oranges..

Answer 1

Answer:

$x + y \ge 10$

$x + 2y \le 20$

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete as the graphs are not shown. So, I will derive the inequalities and plot the graph.

Given

$Banana = \ 1$

$Orange = \ 2$

$Purchase = 10lb$ --- At least

$Spedings = \ 20$ --- Not more than

And we have:

$x = Banana; y = Orange$

The number of purchase will be represented as:

$x + y \ge Purchase$ ---- (at least)

$x + y \ge 10$

The amount spent will be represented as;

$1 * x + 2 * y \le 20$ --- (not more than)

$x + 2y \le 20$

So, the inequalities are:

$x + y \ge 10$

$x + 2y \le 20$
