Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the total number of guests

y -----> the amount of meat

we know that

The inequality that represent this situation is equal to

y\geq \frac{1}{3}x-2

Note The inequality is "greater than or equal" because the given statement say "at least"

The solution of this inequality is the shaded area above the solid line y=\frac{1}{3}x-2

The slope of the solid line is positive

The y-intercept of the solid line is -2  

The x-intercept of the solid line is 6

therefore

The graph in the attached figure

Remember that

The values of x an y cannot be a negative number

A grocer has 2 kinds of tea, one that sells for $8.00 per pound and the other that sells for $6.00 per pound. How many pounds of
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

35 pounds of $8.00 tea and 15 pounds of $6.00 tea

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the pounds of tea of the $8 kind. 8x would represent the total cost of that type of tea. We can also say 50 - x is the pounds of tea of the $6 kind, so 6(50 - x) is the total cost of that type of tea. 50 * 7.4 represents the total cost of all the tea, and the expression 8x + 6(50 -x) would also represent the same thing. We can write this as an equation,

8x + 6(50 -x) = 50 * 7.4

simplify,

8x + 300 - 6x = 370

2x + 300 = 370

and solve.

2x = 70

x = 35

This means there is 35 pounds of the $8 kind.

We can subtract that from 50 to find,

50 - 35 = 15,

15 pounds is the amount of the $6 kind.
