Since there are more parakeets than canaries, it is not possible to have only 1 of each bird in each cage <u>and</u> have the same number of birds in each cage.

He could use 42 cages, putting a canary in with the parakeet in 18 of them. Then he would have 18 cages with 2 birds each, and 24 cages with 1 bird each.

The only way to have the same number of birds (1) in all cages is to have 60 cages, 42 of which have 1 parakeet, and 18 of which have 1 canary.

_____

If more than 1 of each kind of bird can be put in the cage, the collection of birds could be put into 6 cages, each of which would be home to 7 parakeets and 3 canaries.

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. The inequality for this scenario in standard form is 2x + 3y > 30.

<h3>What are inequalities?</h3>

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. Also, it helps us to compare the non-equal expressions so that an equation can be formed.

It is mostly denoted by the symbol <, >, ≤, and ≥.

Let the safety counts be represented by x, while the field goal count is represented by y.

Part A: The inequality for this scenario in standard form.

2x + 3y > 30

Part B: The inequality in slope-intercept form.

2x + 3y > 30

3y > 30 - 2x

y > 10 - (2/3)x

y < (2/3)x - 10

PartC: The inequality is represented below.
