Referring to Exercise 25 but using different data, suppose that the general solution of the corresponding system of equations was (200 − y, y), where x = number of gallons of vanilla, and y =number of gallons of mocha. Your factory can produce only whole numbers of gallons. There are infinitely many ways of making the ice cream, mixes, right? Explain.

Reference:

Resource Allocation You manage an ice cream factory that makes two flavors: Creamy Vanilla and Continental Mocha. Into each quart of Creamy Vanilla go 2 eggs and 3 cups of cream. Into each quart of Continental Mocha go 1 egg and 3 cups of cream.You have in stock 500 eggs and 900 cups of cream. How many quarts of each flavor should you make in order to use up all the eggs and cream? HINT [See Example 5.]
