A lawn care store makes a profit of $89.00 for every push mower sold and $236.00 for every riding lawn mower sold. The owner would like to make at least $621.00 a day from the sales of push and riding lawn mowers. Let x = the number of push mowers sold. Let y = the number of riding mowers sold. Which of the following is a list of 3 possible solutions to the graph?(1 point)

A. (2,1), (2,2), (2,3)

B. (3,1), (4,2), (1,1)

C. (3,2), (2,3), (1,4)

D. (1,2), (2,2), (3,1)

Answer 1

To find the possible solutions to the graph, we need to find the combinations of x (number of push mowers sold) and y (number of riding mowers sold) that will meet or exceed the owner's desired profit of $621.

The profit for each push mower sold is $89, and the profit for each riding mower sold is $236.

We can set up the following equation to represent the desired profit:
89x + 236y ≥ 621

Now let's test each set of values from the given options:

Option A: (2,1), (2,2), (2,3)
For (2,1):
89(2) + 236(1) = 178 + 236 = 414
414 is less than 621, so (2,1) is not a possible solution.

For (2,2):
89(2) + 236(2) = 178 + 472 = 650
650 is greater than 621, so (2,2) is a possible solution.

For (2,3):
89(2) + 236(3) = 178 + 708 = 886
886 is greater than 621, so (2,3) is a possible solution.

Option B: (3,1), (4,2), (1,1)
For (3,1):
89(3) + 236(1) = 267 + 236 = 503
503 is less than 621, so (3,1) is not a possible solution.

For (4,2):
89(4) + 236(2) = 356 + 472 = 828
828 is greater than 621, so (4,2) is a possible solution.

For (1,1):
89(1) + 236(1) = 89 + 236 = 325
325 is less than 621, so (1,1) is a possible solution.

Option C: (3,2), (2,3), (1,4)
For (3,2):
89(3) + 236(2) = 267 + 472 = 739
739 is greater than 621, so (3,2) is a possible solution.

For (2,3):
89(2) + 236(3) = 178 + 708 = 886
886 is greater than 621, so (2,3) is a possible solution.

For (1,4):
89(1) + 236(4) = 89 + 944 = 1033
1033 is greater than 621, so (1,4) is a possible solution.

Option D: (1,2), (2,2), (3,1)
For (1,2):
89(1) + 236(2) = 89 + 472 = 561
561 is less than 621, so (1,2) is not a possible solution.

For (2,2):
89(2) + 236(2) = 178 + 472 = 650
650 is greater than 621, so (2,2) is a possible solution.

For (3,1):
89(3) + 236(1) = 267 + 236 = 503
503 is less than 621, so (3,1) is not a possible solution.

Based on the calculations, the list of 3 possible solutions to the graph is:

C. (3,2), (2,3), (1,4)

Answer 2

the correct answer

Answer 3

My apologies for the incorrect response. Let's reassess the options:

A. (2,1), (2,2), (2,3)
For (2,1):
89(2) + 236(1) = 178 + 236 = 414
414 is less than 621, so (2,1) is not a possible solution.

For (2,2):
89(2) + 236(2) = 178 + 472 = 650
650 is greater than 621, so (2,2) is a possible solution.

For (2,3):
89(2) + 236(3) = 178 + 708 = 886
886 is greater than 621, so (2,3) is a possible solution.

B. (3,1), (4,2), (1,1)
For (3,1):
89(3) + 236(1) = 267 + 236 = 503
503 is less than 621, so (3,1) is not a possible solution.

For (4,2):
89(4) + 236(2) = 356 + 472 = 828
828 is greater than 621, so (4,2) is a possible solution.

For (1,1):
89(1) + 236(1) = 89 + 236 = 325
325 is less than 621, so (1,1) is not a possible solution.

C. (3,2), (2,3), (1,4)
For (3,2):
89(3) + 236(2) = 267 + 472 = 739
739 is greater than 621, so (3,2) is a possible solution.

For (2,3):
89(2) + 236(3) = 178 + 708 = 886
886 is greater than 621, so (2,3) is a possible solution.

For (1,4):
89(1) + 236(4) = 89 + 944 = 1033
1033 is greater than 621, so (1,4) is a possible solution.

D. (1,2), (2,2), (3,1)
For (1,2):
89(1) + 236(2) = 89 + 472 = 561
561 is less than 621, so (1,2) is not a possible solution.

For (2,2):
89(2) + 236(2) = 178 + 472 = 650
650 is greater than 621, so (2,2) is a possible solution.

For (3,1):
89(3) + 236(1) = 267 + 236 = 503
503 is less than 621, so (3,1) is not a possible solution.
