You can spend at most $60 on beads. A bag containing red beads costs $2 per bag. A bag containing blue beads costs $3 per bag. You need more bags of blue beads than bags of red beads. Write a system of linear equations that represents the situation.
Accepted Solution
A:
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables. We have then: x: number of blue beads y: number of red beads We now write the inequations system: [tex]3x + 2y \leq 60
x\ \textgreater \ y[/tex] Answer: a system of linear inequations that represents the situation is: [tex]3x + 2y \leq 60 x\ \textgreater \ y[/tex]
