Question

Can you please analyse this for me. Step by step please.

Consider the following linear programming problem:
Chimpanzees have nutritional requirements that differ slightly from those of humans. According to one primate veterinarian, an
adult chimp requires at least 79 g of carbohydrates, 37 g of fat, and 43 g of protein. An ounce of food A contains 12 g of
carbohydrates, 4 g of fat, and 3 grams of protein, while an ounce of food B contains 10 g of carbohydrate, 3 g of fat, and 6 g of
protein. Use x to represent the number of ounces of food A and y to represent the number of ounces of food B.
Write a system of linear inequalities that describes the possible quantities of each type of food needed to meet the nutritional
requirements of an adult chimpanzee.
