Just a quick question. How am I supposed to approach this, obviously I'm given two growth rates but I'm not sure what to do with them: Suppose one year ago the price index was 120 and Amy purchased $20,000 worth of bonds. One year later the price index is 126. Amy redeems her bonds for $22,250 and is in a 40 percent tax bracket. What is Amy’s real after-tax rate of interest?

third choice down

step-by-step explanation:

the first inequality is based on the number of adults and campers, and the second inequality is based on the cost of feeding both the adult and the camper.

we know that there is room for 525 people max.   it's ok to have less than 525, but it's not ok to have more than 525, so the inequality is less than or equal to.   the number combination of adults (x) and campers (y) cannot exceed this 525 max.   therefore:

x + y ≤ 525

now we talk about cost.   it costs $9 to feed one adult, so depending upon the number of adults you have (x) depends upon how much it will cost to feed that number of adults.   same with the campers, who cost $5 to feed.   the adults can be represented by 9x and the campers can be represented by 5y.   since the budget cannot exceed 1,200, the second inequality is:

9x + 5y ≤ 1200
