X + 2y = 11
2x + y = 31

x = 11 - 2y

2(11 - 2y) + y = 31
22 - 4y + y = 31
3y = - 9
y = - 3

x = 11 - 2(-3)
x = 11 + 6
x = 17

A pharmacist is filling small empty bottles with cough syrup from a larger bottle. He can solve the inequality to find the numbe
andrey2020 [161]

Let us assume capacity of large bottle = 1000 ml.

And capacity of each small bottle = 25 ml.

Reaming milliliters in large bottle = 250 milliliters.

Number of bottles = x bottles.

Total capacity of large bottle - capacity of a small bottle × number of bottles > Reamining milliliters in large bottle.

Therefore, we can setup an inequality.

1000 - 25 × x > 250.

1000 -25x >250.
