Problem Solving with Inequalities

The document provides examples of math problems involving diophantine equations, maximizing and minimizing functions, and finding the maximum of a product given a sum. The first problem involves determining how many boxes of a particular type of screw were bought given the total cost and individual screw box prices. The second problem involves determining how many cocks were bought given the total spent and individual prices of cocks, hens, and chicks. The third problem involves finding the minimum and maximum of a cubic function over a given interval. The fourth problem asks to determine which two numbers that sum to 10 will produce the maximum product.
