 18. 

A butcher shop makes hamburger patties and sausages. Hamburger patties sell for $2.50 and sausage sell for $2. The butcher noticed that they always sell at least four times as many hamburger patties as sausages. The butcher never sells more than 1000 hamburger patties.
Let h represent the number of hamburger patties sold.
Let s represent the number of sausages sold.
Write a system of linear inequalities to describe the constraints. Then, write an objective function that represents the profit made from the sale of hamburger patties and sausages.
 

Problem
 

 19. 

For every quilt that is sold at a fundraising banquet, $90 goes to charity. For every ticket that is sold, $65 goes to charity. The organizers’ goal is to raise at least $7000. The organizers need to know how many quilts and tickets must be sold to meet their goal.
a) Define the variables and write a linear inequality to represent the situation.
b) Graph the linear inequality to help you determine whether each of the following points is in the solution set. The first coordinate is the number of quilts and the second is the number of tickets.
i) (40, 50)      ii) (10, 100)      iii) (20, 75)
 

 20. 

The staff in a cafeteria are making two kinds of sandwiches: salami and cheese.
• A maximum of 820 sandwiches are needed.
• Based on previous demand, there should be at least two cheese sandwiches for every three salami sandwiches.
a) Define the variables and write a system of inequalities that models this situation.
b) Suggest two combinations of numbers of sandwiches that the cafeteria staff could make.
 

 21. 

Andrew has two summer jobs.
• He works no more than a total of 25 h a week. Both jobs allow him to have flexible hours but in whole hours only.
• At one job, Andrew works no less than 12 h and earns $9.00/h.
• At the other job, Andrew works no more than 20 h and earns $8.25/h.
What combination of numbers of hours will allow him to maximize his earnings? What can he expect to earn?
