Answer: The required inequality is $x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22.$ and its solution is $x>8.$

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Mustafa, Heloise, and Gia have written more than a combined total of 22 articles for the school newspaper.

Also, Heloise has written $\frac{1}{4}$ as many articles as Mustafa has and Gia has written $\frac{3}{2}$ as many articles as Mustafa has.

We are to write an inequality to determine the number of articles, m, Mustafa could have written for the school newspaper. Also, to solve the inequality.

Since m denotes the number of articles that Mustafa could have written. Then, according to the given information, we have

$x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22.$

And the solution of the above inequality is as follows :

$x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{4x+x+6x}{4}>22\\\\\\\Rightarrow 11x>88\\\\\Rightarrow x>\dfrac{88}{11}\\\\\Rightarrow x>8.$

Thus, the required inequality is $x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22.$ and its solution is $x>8.$

a lunch stand makes a $.75 profit on each chef's salad and $1.20 profit on each caesar salad. On a typical weekday, it sells bet

tangare [24]

Answer:

50 Chef's salads and 50 Caesar salads should be prepared in order to maximize profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the number of Chef's salad is $x$ and the number of Caesar salad is $y$

On a typical weekday, it sells between 40 and 60 Chefs salads and between 35 and 50 Caesar salads.

So, the two constraints are: $40\leq x\leq 60$ and $35\leq y\leq 50$

The total number sold has never exceed 100 salads. So, another constraint will be: $x+y\leq 100$

According to the graph of the constraints, the vertices of the common shaded region are: $(40,35), (60,35), (60,40), (50,50)$ and $(40,50)$ (Refer to the attached image for the graph)
