Whats the answer to this

Question

A local food bank wants to transport as many lunch and clothing packages across the state as it can. Each food package weighs 35 pounds and occupies 3 feet33 . Each clothing package weighs 20pounds and occupies 4 feet3. The shipping container holds no more than 6600 pounds and no more than 1200 feet3\

Write a system of linear inequalities (in slope-intercept form) that describes the constraints of this situation. Use the variable y to represent number of food packages and x for number of clothes packages. Do not solve.

Answer 1

For this question, we can describe the system by separating the values attached to each of our variables.

Weight in the shipping container is as follows:

20x + 35y ≤ 6600

Similarly, the volume occupied in the shipping container is:

4x + 3y ≤ 1200

Graphing these two areas will show the limits of the shipping container, and the possible values for x and y will be in the area under both of these lines.
