Question

Your club is baking vanilla and chocolate cakes for a bake sale. They need at most 15 cakes. You cannot have more than 11 chocolate cakes. Write and graph a system of inequalities to model this system.

( I will attach pictures ) *

Let x = the number of vanilla cakes.
Let y = the number of chocolate cakes.

Let x = the number of vanilla cakes.
Let y = the number of chocolate cakes.

Let x = the number of vanilla cakes.
Let y = the number of chocolate cakes.

Let x = the number of vanilla cakes.
Let y = the number of chocolate cakes.

Answer 1

@surdawi ; youu know this ? (:

Answer 2

yes, it is a piece of cake...show me your work and i will help you

Answer 3

What work? lol

Answer 4

im not finishing this test for you, you have to try and i will help :D

Answer 5

I don't even know where to begin ?

Answer 6

lol

Answer 7

I think you should at least have some clue of what is going on.

Answer 8

I don't know how to start it?

Answer 9

Can you help me start it ?

Answer 10

You have to establish the boundaries first.

Answer 11

So basically, that's what you do first. And I guess before you do that, you have to define what your x and y values will represent .

Answer 12

So

1. Define x and y values
2. Establish boundaries using inequalities
3. Then plot them on the graph.

That's essentially what you do in a nutshell.

Answer 13

boundaries?

Answer 14

Ya, boundaries as in the limits of each variable

Answer 15

Goshhh , this is soo hard . . . Im really bad at math -___-

Answer 16

come on andrea you can do it

Answer 17

You know that you can't make negative cakes so you need to make more than zero. So zero is a boundary for both cakes.

Answer 18

It will basically be the lower limit

Answer 19

I still don't get it . . .

Answer 20

Well, first you should cease mentioning that "I don't get it" and concentrate on trying to understand.

Answer 21

Saying "I don't get it" isn't going to help

Answer 22

So , it will be the 2nd chart ? cause thats the chart with the lowest number of cakes?

Answer 23

Well, we're not done defining things yet

Answer 24

Basically, lets define things this way:

x = vanilla cake
y = chocolate cake

x > 0
y > 0

x + y < 15
y < 11

Answer 25

Now you have to plot each one of those scenarios on a graph

Answer 26

I have to plot

x>0
y>0

x+y<15
y<11 ?

Answer 27

Yup

Answer 28

I don't have graph paper, ? :( lol

Answer 29

You need to get some

Answer 30

I can get some tomorrow , but I have to answer this question today .

Answer 31

Where's your graphing calc?

Answer 32

I don't have one. I have a TI-30XS
