Begin by disregarding the inequality symbol and substituting it with an '=' sign. After that, determine the x- and y-intercepts.
15x + 10y = 1,100
x-intercept:
15x + 0 = 1,100
x = 1,100/15 = 73.33
y-intercept:
0 + 10y = 1,100
y = 1,100/10 = 110
Now, plot the points (73.33,0) and (0,110). Given that the inequality symbol is ≥, representing equality, connect these points using a solid line.
Next, let's identify a point on the graph, for instance, the origin (0,0). Use this point in the equation.
15x + 10y ≥ 1,100
15(0) + 10(0)? 1,100
0? 1,100
0 < 1,100
This makes the ≥ statement false. As a result, the alternate area defined by the line is the solution. Consequently, shade that region. The resulting graph is displayed in the attached image.
