Then select the graph of the system andselect one possible solution.The system of inequalities

Answer 1

x: green towels (each one cost $5)

y: blue towels (each one cost $9)

She wants to buy at least 4 towels:

$x+y\ge4$

She does not want to spend more than $38:

$5x+9y\leq38$

The sytem of inequalitites is:

$\begin{gathered} x+y\ge4 \\ 5x+9y\leq38 \end{gathered}$

Graph: First inequality in red, second inequality in blue

Solution: Area shaded of both colours

$undefined$
