• maximum value at (0, 0); 0

• (7,4)

• (3,10)

• (10,1)

• (8,5)

Sarah makes small purses (x) and big purses (y). She can make no more than 8 purses a week.

Which inequality represents the situation?

• x + y ≤ 8

• x + y > 8

• 2x + 3y ≤ 6

• x + y ≤ 10

It takes Sarah 2 hours to make small purses and 3 hours to make big purses. She has a maximum of 18 hours a week. Which inequality represents this situation?

• 2x + 3y ≤ 18
• x + y ≤ 6
• x + y ≤ 9
• 3x + 2y ≤ 18

Sarah makes $30 for each small purse (x) and $50 for each big purse (y). What is the objective function?
