Tiffany sells two kinds of homemade tomato sauce. A quart of her Tuscan sauce requires 6 tomatoes and 1 cup of oil. A quart of h

er marinara sauce requires 5 tomatoes and 1.25 cups of oil. She makes $4 profit on each quart of her Tuscan sauce and $5 profit on each quart of her marinara sauce. She has 45 tomatoes and 10 cups of oil on hand. Tiffany wants to maximize her profits from selling the sauce.
Let x represent the number of quarts of Tuscan sauce and y represent the number of quarts of marinara sauce Tiffany makes.

What are the constraints for the problem?

By sketching a diagram of the requirements for creating 1 quart of both Tuscan and Marinara sauces, you can more easily select option (B) 6x + 5y <= 45, x + 5/4y <= 10, x>=0, y>=0.

Let x denote the quarts of Tuscan sauce and

y denote the quarts of marinara sauce that Tiffany produces.

Each quart of Tuscan sauce requires 6 tomatoes and 1 cup of oil

Hence, x quarts need 6x tomatoes and 1x cups of oil

For marinara sauce, a quart requires 5 tomatoes and 1.25 cups of oil

Thus, y quarts will require 5y tomatoes and 1.25y cups of oil

She has a stock of 45 tomatoes and 10 cups of oil available.

The constraints are:

6x + 5y

1x + 1.25y < = 10

x>=0 and y>=0

PIT_PIT [12445]
We are given the points
<span>E (0, 27)
</span><span>F (5,−8)

and we need to calculate the rate of change and the initial value:

To determine the rate of change, we will apply the slope formula:
m = (-8 - 27) / (5 - 0) = -7
Thus, the rate of change is -7

The initial value refers to the y-coordinate when x equals 0, which corresponds to point E. Therefore, the initial value is 27.</span>

Answer: x ≥ 3.2 OR x ≤ -0.75

Here's how to solve the compound inequality step-by-step: start by separating it into two inequalities. For the first one, 5x - 4 ≥ 12, add 4 to both sides to remove the constant, leaving 5x ≥ 16. Then divide both sides by 5 to isolate x, resulting in x ≥ 3.2.

Now for the second part, 12x + 5 ≤ -4, subtract 5 from both sides to obtain 12x ≤ -9. Dividing both sides by 12 gives x ≤ -9/12, which simplifies to x ≤ -0.75. So, combining both, the solution is x ≥ 3.2 OR x ≤ -0.75.
