Let be the number of cookies and
be the number of cupcakes.
Rebecca can bake cookies at a time and
cupcakes at a time.
She needs to make at least baked goods, but no more than
. \ \
Hence the inequality is .
She wants to have at least three times as many cookies as cupcakes. \ \
\Hence the inequality is .
The inequalities are and
,
and
.

Observe the graph:
\The dark shaded region is the region where all the inequalities are true.
\Pick a point in this region.
\Since they have whole numbers of batches.
