A small company produces both bouquets and wreaths of dried flowers. The bouquets take 1 hour of labor to produce, and the wreaths take 2 hours. The labor available is limited to 80 hours per week, and the total production capacity is 60 items per week. Write a system of inequalities representing this situation, where x is the number of bouquets and y is the number of wreaths. Then graph the system of inequalities.
Story problem , help please?
labor: 1x + 2y ≤ 80
count: x + y ≤ 60
to graph 1st inequality, draw a line from x intercept at 80 to y intercept at 40. likewise from x intercept 60 to y intercept 60 for 2nd. shade the polygon enclosed by these lines and the x and y axes. It will have corners at (0,0), (0,40), (40,20), and (60,0).
Reply:x+2y%26lt;=80
x+y%26lt;=60
graphing these is easy
