Biology Each day, an average adult moose can process about 32 kilograms of terrestrial vegetation (twigs and leaves) and aquatic vegetation. From this food, it needs to obtain about 1.9 grams of sodium and 11,000 calories of energy. Aquatic vegetation has about 0.15 gram of sodium per kilogram and about 193 calories of energy per kilogram, whereas terrestrial vegetation has minimal sodium and about four times as much energy as aquatic vegetation. Write and graph a system of inequalities that describes the amounts t and a of terrestrial and aquatic vegetation, respectively, for the daily diet of an average adult moose.
In the following exercises, translate to a system of inequalities and solve. 319. Jocelyn is pregnant and needs to eat at least 500 more calories a day than usual. When buying groceries one day with a budget of $15 for the extra food, she buys bananas that have 90 calories each and chocolate granola bars that have 150 calories each. The bananas cost $0.35 each and the granola bars cost $2.50 each. (a) Write a system of inequalities to model this situation. (b) Graph the system. (c) Could she buy 5 bananas and 6 granola bars? (d) Could she buy 3 bananas and 4 granola bars?
Tickets for an American Baseball League game for 3 adults and 3 children cost less than $75, while tickets for 2 adults and 4 children cost less than $62. (a) Write a system of inequalities to model this problem. (b) Graph the system. (c) Could the tickets cost $20 for adults and $8 for children? (d) Could the tickets cost $15 for adults and $5 for children?
Elena needs to earn at least $450 a week during her summer break to pay for college. She works two jobs. One as a swimming instructor that pays $9 an hour and the other as an intern in a genetics lab for $22.50 per hour. How many hours does Elena need to work at each job to earn at least $450 per week? (a) Let x be the number of hours she works teaching swimming and let y be the number of hours she works as an intern. Write an inequality that would model this situation. (b) Graph the inequality. (c) Find three ordered pairs (x, y) that would be solutions to the inequality. Then, explain what that means for Elena.
