Provide an appropriate response.Two species of deer, A and B, living in a wildlife refuge are given extra food in the winter. Each week they receive 3.5 tons of food pellets and 7 tons of hay. Each deer of species A requires 4 pounds of the pellets and 8 pounds of hay. Each deer of species B requires 2 pounds of the pellets and 4 pounds of hay. How many of each species of deer will the food support so that all of the food is consumed each week? Use a graphing calculator to graph both of your equations at the same time. What do you notice about the graphs?
What will be an ideal response?
Infinitely many solutions of the form A = 1750 - r, B = r, where 0 ? r ? 3500.
