Let's work this problem out together, ok?
OpenStudy (diana.xl):
ok
OpenStudy (mathmate):
Here, we have to buy turkey (t) and chicken (c).
We're given a budget, which normally we do not exceed.
We also have a minimum purchase, which we have to equal or exceed.
So far so good?
OpenStudy (diana.xl):
yep
