You know that you can care for 10 pets per day and you want to earn at least $30 per day. Write a system of linear inequalities that describes the situation for x dogs and y pets other than dogs. Then graph the system to show all possible solutions. This question is from textbook

x dogs and y pets other than dogs

---------------------

The solutions are between the two lines, including
the lines also, but only in the positive x and y regions
(one cannot care for negative number of pets)
As a check, I can test some points that are in the
solution zone and one outside
Inside: (8,1), (1,7)
Outside: (1,2)
(8,1)

------------------

Ok
-----------------

=======================
(1,7)

------------------

OK
=======================
(1,2) should not work

NOT OK
So, this is outside and fails as it should
