Which of the constraints does NOT fit the problem?

Which of the constraints does NOT fit the problem?
A chocolate shop makes fudge and chocolates. Each week the shop must create at least 7 pounds of fudge and 14 pounds of chocolate to be sold in their store. The shop can produce at most 32 pounds of fudge and chocolates altogether each week. Let x be the pounds of fudge and y be the pounds of chocolate.
○ x + y ≤ 32
○ y ≥ 14
○ x ≥ 7
○ 7x + 14y < 32

Answer

The constraint that does NOT fit the problem is:

  1. 7x + 14y < 32

This constraint does not fit because it incorrectly represents the total production limit. The correct constraint for the total production should be x + y ≤ 32, which is already given as an option.
