Let x be the number of trees and y be the number of bushes.
The cost of buying trees is $14 per tree, so the total cost of buying trees is 14x dollars.
The cost of buying bushes is $5 per bush, so the total cost of buying bushes is 5y dollars.
The landscaper wishes to keep the spending under $1000, so the total cost of both trees and bushes must be less than $1000.
Putting it all together, the linear inequality in standard form is:
14x + 5y < 1000
write a linear inequaliy in standar from for this situation.: A landscapeing business is purchasing plants frm a nusery to finsih a project. It wil cost $14 each to buy each tree and $5 each to buy each bush. the landscaper wishes to keep the spending under $1000
