Can someone please help me answer this question? I really need help... Solve the following problem using any method of solving systems. CHECK your solutions by substituting your coordinates into BOTH equations and simplifying. Question~ You want to plan a nutritious breakfast. It should supply at least 500 calories or more. Be sure your choices would provide a reasonable breakfast. Suppose you want to have cereal, milk, and one glass of tomato juice. Let c be the number of cups of cereal and m the number of cups of milk. The inequality 102c + 150m + 41 => 500 models the situation.

OpenStudy (abbycross167):

a) Determine three ordered pairs (c, m) that are solutions of the inequality where 0 <= c < 8 and 0 <= m < 4. b) Graph the inequality. (Assume you can eat partial eggs and drink partial apple juices.)

@pooja195 @triciaal @Luigi0210 @Nnesha @tkhunny @Luigi0210 Could one of you please help me?

OpenStudy (danjs):

the cereal , milk, and juice need to be at least 500 calories, 102c + 150m + 41 => 500 'c' and 'm' are quantities in cups of each , the coefficient number is calories per cup only 1 cup juice is ever used, so no variable needed, 41 calories for the juice

OpenStudy (danjs):

pick a value for m, or n that is in the interval they give...use it and solve for what the other variable is, and if it still falls in the range

OpenStudy (danjs):

m or c

OpenStudy (abbycross167):

I'm not sure I understand...

OpenStudy (danjs):

they want the 'm' and 'c' values to stay in the intervals given 0 <= c < 8 and 0 <= m < 4 pick some values, that will keep the inequality true, like (c,m) = (8,4) the two largest values should work, need 3 points

OpenStudy (abbycross167):

oh ok, so (8,4) could be a point?
