Jacie is serving steak and chicken she wants to have at least 20 pounds of meat. Steak is $8 per pound and chicken is $4 per pound . Jacie wants to spend at most 120 dollarss on meat

She can get 10 pounds of steak and 10 pounds of chicken.

Step-by-step explanation:

As Jacie wants to have at least 20 pounds of meat, you can write the following  equation:

x+y=20, where

x refers to the pounds of steak

y refers to the pounds of chicken

Also, since the statement indicate that the steak is $8 per pound and chicken is $4 per pound and Jacie wants to spend at most 120 dollars on meat, you can write the following equation:

8x+4y=120

So, you have the following equations:

x+y=20 (1)

8x+4y=120 (2)

Now, you can solve for x in (1):

x=20-y (3)

Then, you can replace (3) in (2) and solve for y:

8(20-y)+4y=120

160-8y+4y=120

160-120=8y-4y

40=4y

y=40/4

y=10

Finally, you can relace the value of y in (3) to find x:

x=20-y

x=20-10

x=10

According to this, the answer is that she can get 10 pounds of steak and 10 pounds of chicken.

10 pounds of chicken and 10 pounds of steak

Step-by-step explanation:

If steak is $8 then you can get 10 for 10x8=80

If chicken is $4 then you can get 10 of that aswell for 10x4=40 and 80+40=120.
