Q:

Katie wants to buy some popcorn for her family at the theater. Each small tub of popcorn costs $3 and each large tub of popcorn costs $4. She needs to buy at least 7 tubs of popcorn, but she only has $24 in her wallet.If the solution region represents the number of small and large tubs of popcorn that Katie can buy, determine which graph represents the solution set to the system of inequalities representing this situation.

Accepted Solution

A:
The correct solution is shown in the graph (D)Given that the budget is $24 and the minimum is 7 tubs, the fourth graph shows the area in which both constraints are satisfied: triangular area between the points7 small tubs8 small tubs3 large and 4 small tubs
