Reflection

          Some challenges we faced on this project were in setting up the problems. We would set them up and try to solve them to get our final answer but realize at the very end that the numbers didn't work with the graph. To solve this, Jessica and I spent almost two hours watching a video on how to set up a similar problem trying to figure out where we were going wrong. After a lot of trial and error we finally understood what the video was saying.

          This project helped me understand how to graph linear inequalities a little better as well as helped to solidify my understanding of which side of the line to shade.

          This project helped show me that a lot of math and thinking goes into business and things like inventory to get the perfect amount of product and profit. This type of mathematical thinking could also be applied to everyday life like planning ahead for groceries or trip expenses. Math is all around, this project merely taught me how to use some of it.
