Oksana_A [137]

Given:

Jeffery babysits for 4 dollars per hour and works as a math tutor for 7 dollars per hour.

He is only allowed to work 13 hours total per week.

He wants to make at least 65 dollars.

To find:

The system of inequalities to represent this situation.

Solution:

Let x be the number of hours he babysits per week and y be the number of hours h works as a math tutor.

He is only allowed to work 13 hours total per week.  It means sum of x and y must be less than or equal to 13.

x+y\leq 13

He wants to make at least 65 dollars. It means total earnings must be greater than or equal to 65.

4x+7y\geq 65

Number of hours can not be negative.

x\geq 0, y\geq 0.

Therefore, the required system of inequalities contains some equations,  x+y\leq 13,4x+7y\geq 65 and x, y\geq 0.
