Provide an appropriate response.Two species of fish, A and B, are raised in one pond at a fish farm where they are fed two vitamin supplements. Each day they receive 100 grams of the first supplement and 200 grams of the second supplement. Each fish of species A requires 15 mg of the first supplement and 30 mg of the second supplement. Each fish of species B requires 20 mg of the first supplement and 40 mg of the second supplement. How many of each species of fish will the pond support so that all of the supplements are consumed each day? Use a graphing calculator to graph both of your equations at the same time. What do you notice about the graphs?
