An Experiment That Involves Learning in Animals Requires Placing White

question 30

Multiple Choice

An experiment that involves learning in animals requires placing white mice and rabbits into separate, controlled environments, environment I and environment II. The maximum amount of time available in environment I is 200 minutes, and the maximum amount of time available in environment II is 100 minutes. The white mice must spend 16 minutes in environment I and 20 minutes in environment II, and the rabbits must spend 15 minutes in environment I and 50 minutes in environment II. Write a system of inequalities that describes the constraints on the number of each type of animal used in the experiment. Let x denote the number of white mice and y denote the number of rabbits. ​
