A possible solution of the inequality that represents the mixing of fruits is (16,24)

The size of the bowl is given as:

[tex]Size =40\ cup[/tex]

The size of the fruit juice is given as:

[tex]Fruit =24\ cup[/tex] --- at least

Represent the size of bowl of ginger ale with x.

So, the inequality that represents the value of x is

[tex]x + 24 \le 40[/tex]

Subtract 24 from both sides

[tex]x + 24 -24\le 40 -24[/tex]

[tex]x\le 16[/tex]

This means that, the bowl of the ginger ale cannot be more than 16 cups

Hence, a possible solution is (16,24)
