Otto used 6 cups of whole wheat flour and x cups of white flour in the recipe. what is the equation that can be used to find the value of y, the total amount of flour that otto used in the recipe, and what are the constraints on the values of x and y?

and

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Otto used 6 cups of whole wheat flour .

Otto used x cups of white flour in the recipe.

We have to find an equation that can be used to find the value of y which is total amount of flour that Otto used in the recipe and find the constraints on the values of x and y.

Number of cups of whole wheat flour=6

Number of cups of white flour=x

Total number of flour used by Otto=x+6

The equation that can be used to find the value of y

We know that quantity is always greater than zero or equal to zero.

Therefore, constraints on the value of x and y is given by
