Question 106533
My instructor want us to write linear inequalities for this information: A formula for a special blend of nuts used to make large batches of cookie dough. Cost of this blend:
$6 per lb. of nuts to be mixed with
$5 per lb. of nuts to get a total of 
at least 50 lbs of blended nuts. 
--------------------------
Let # of pounds of $6 nuts be "a"; value of these is 6a dollars
Let # of pounds of $5 nuts be "b"; value of these is 5b dollars
---------------
INEQUALITIS:
Quantity: a + b >= 50lbs
Value : Cost >=  6a + 5b
