Read the following instructions to complete this assignment: 

1. Solve problem 68 on page 539 of Elementary and      Intermediate Algebra, and make sure to study the given graph. For the      purposes of the assignment, it would be helpful to copy the graph onto      your own scratch paper. 
2. Write a two- to three-page paper (not including the      title page) that is formatted in APA style and according to the Math Writing Guide. Format your math work as shown in the  example , and be concise in your reasoning. In the body of your      essay, do the following:

   Demonstrate your solution to all three portions of the       above problem, making sure to include all mathematical work, and an       explanation for each step.
    
   Use the inequality you create from part (a) of problem       68 to evaluate the following two scenarios:

   The Burbank Buy More store is        going to make an order which will include, at most, 60 refrigerators.        What is the maximum number of TVs that could also be delivered on the        same 18-wheeler? Be sure to show all your work and how you came to that        conclusion. 
   The next day, the Burbank Buy        More decides they will have a television sale so they change their order        to include at least 200 TVs. What is the maximum number of refrigerators        that could also be delivered in the same truck? Be sure to show your        work and how you came to that conclusion. 

3. Incorporate the following five math vocabulary words      into your discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in your writing (Do not      write definitions for the words; use them appropriately in sentences      describing your math work.):

   Solid line 
   Dashed line 
   Parallel 
   Linear inequality
