You are buying plants and soil for your garden. the soil costs $4.00 per bag and the plants cost $10.00 each. you want to but at least 5 plants and can spend no more than $100 total.

What’s the question though?

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) The system of linear inequalities is

Part b) The graph in the attached figure

Part c) A solution could be (5,7) (see the explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

You are buying plants and soil for your garden. The soil cost 4.00 dollars per bag and the plants cost $10.00 each. You want to buy at least 5 plants and can spend no more than $100

a) write a system of linear inequalities to model the situation

b) Graph the system of linear inequalities

c) Identify and interpret a solution to the system

Part a) write a system of linear inequalities to model the situation

Let

x > the number of bags of soil

y > number of plants

we know that

The word "at least" means "greater than or equal"

> inequality A

The word "no more" means "less than or equal"

> inequality B

Part b) Graph the system of linear inequalities

we have

> inequality A

> inequality B

using a graphing tool

the solution is the triangular shaded area

see the attached figure

Part c) Identify and interpret a solution to the system

we know that

If a ordered pair is a solution to the system, then the ordered pair must lie on the shaded area of the solution

i take the point (5,7)

the point (5,7) lie on the shaded area of the solution

so

is a solution of the system

That means > You are buying 5 bags of soil and 7 plants for your garden

Verify the solution

Remember

If a ordered pair is a solution to the system, then the ordered pair must satisfy both inequalities

Verify inequality A

 > is true

so

The ordered pair (5,7) satisfy inequality A

Verify inequality B

---> is true

so

The ordered pair (5,7) satisfy inequality B

therefore

The ordered pair (5,7) is a solution to the system
