6 A recipe for jam states that the weight of sugar used must be between the weight of fruit used and four thirds of the weight of fruit used. Georgia has 10 kg of fruit available and 11 kg of sugar.
- Define two variables and formulate inequalities in those variables to model this information.
- Draw a graph to represent your inequalities.
- Find the vertices of your feasible region and identify the points which would represent the best mix of ingredients under each of the following circumstances.
(A) There is to be as much jam as possible, given that the weight of jam produced is the sum of the weights of the fruit and the sugar.
(B) There is to be as much jam as possible, given that it is to have the lowest possible proportion of sugar.
(C) There is to be as much jam as possible, given that it is to have the highest possible proportion of sugar.
(D) Fruit costs \(\pounds 1\) per kg, sugar costs 50 p per kg and the objective is to produce as much jam as possible within a budget of \(\pounds 15\).
