As a nurse, part of your daily duties is to mix medications in the proper proportions for your patients. For one of your regular patients, you always mix Medication A with Medication B in the same proportion. Last week, your patient's doctor indicated that you should mix 30 milligrams of Medication A with 27 milligrams of Medication B. However this week, the doctor said to only use 18 milligrams of Medication B. How many milligrams of Medication A should be mixed this week?

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
