1. **Problem 16: Solve the system of inequalities by graphing:**
Given inequalities:
$$x \leq 4$$
$$y > -3x + 12$$
$$y \leq 9$$
Test the point $(0,0)$ to determine shading:
- For $x \leq 4$: $0 \leq 4$ is true, so the boundary line $x=4$ is solid.
- For $y > -3x + 12$: $0 > -3(0) + 12 \Rightarrow 0 > 12$ is false, so shade opposite side.
- For $y \leq 9$: $0 \leq 9$ is true, so the boundary line $y=9$ is solid.
The solution region is where all inequalities overlap.
2. **Problem 17: Find the cost of coffee, doughnuts, and tip from the system:**
Let $C$ = cost of one coffee, $D$ = cost of one doughnut, $T$ = tip amount.
From the problem:
- Monday: $2C + D + T = 11.25$
- Tuesday: $C + 2D + T = 8.75$
- Wednesday: $C + 6D + T = 11.75$
Subtract Tuesday from Wednesday:
$$ (C + 6D + T) - (C + 2D + T) = 11.75 - 8.75 $$
$$ 4D = 3.00 $$
$$ D = 0.75 $$
Substitute $D=0.75$ into Tuesday's equation:
$$ C + 2(0.75) + T = 8.75 $$
$$ C + 1.5 + T = 8.75 $$
$$ C + T = 7.25 $$
Substitute $D=0.75$ into Monday's equation:
$$ 2C + 0.75 + T = 11.25 $$
$$ 2C + T = 10.5 $$
Subtract $C + T = 7.25$ from $2C + T = 10.5$:
$$ (2C + T) - (C + T) = 10.5 - 7.25 $$
$$ C = 3.25 $$
From $C + T = 7.25$:
$$ 3.25 + T = 7.25 $$
$$ T = 4.00 $$
**Final costs:**
- Coffee $C = 3.25$
- Doughnut $D = 0.75$
- Tip $T = 4.00$
3. **Cost for two baker's dozens (24 doughnuts) including tip:**
$$ 24D + T = 24(0.75) + 4.00 = 18 + 4 = 22.00 $$
**Summary:**
- The solution region for inequalities is the overlap of $x \leq 4$, $y > -3x + 12$ (above the line), and $y \leq 9$.
- Coffee costs 3.25, doughnuts 0.75 each, tip 4.00.
- Two baker's dozens doughnuts with tip cost 22.00.
