Question 1172097: Robert and his children went into a bakery where they sell cupcakes for $4.75 each and cookies for $1.25 each. Robert has $50 to spend and must buy no less than 14 cupcakes and cookies altogether. If xx represents the number of cupcakes purchased and yy represents the number of cookies purchased, write and solve a system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.

Once you graph the inequalities you can pick any integer solution in the feasible area.
Hint: Your feasible area is easier to see if you graph the inequalities with the opposite sense. That way it is the UNshaded area that remains that is the feasible area and you don't get confused with trying to see which area is the overlap of all four shaded areas.
