Luca is helping his grandmother, Nonna Lucia, plant tomatoes and cucumbers in her
garden. She says the ratio of tomato plants to cucumber plants should be at least 3 to 1
so she'll never run out of tomatoes for spaghetti sauce. She also wants at most 36
plants in all.
Graph a system of inequalities that represents this story. One inequality should
represent the ratio of tomato plants to cucumber plants, and the other inequality should
represent the total number of plants.
Select a line to change it between solid and dotted. Select a region to shade it.
