Let x = the number of earrings she buys, and y = the number of necklasses she buys: ThenTo make things easier divide that through by 12: We also cannot have a negative number of either, so we actually have this system: The three boundary lines are the equations made by replacing the inequality symbols by equal signs: Get the intercept points on the line whose equation is , (0,6), (12,0) The line whose equation is is the y-axis. and the line whose equation is is the x-axis. Plot those intercepts and draw the boundary lines: So every point inside that triangle or on the boundary of that triangle which ia a corner point of one of those little squares in the grid represents a possible solution. There are 49 such points and thus 49 different possible solutions, They are given below. Note that the first case is the origin, (0,0), which represent the case of not buying any earrings or any necklasses!! 1. The point (0,0) represents buying 0 earrings and 0 necklasses costs $0 2.
