You are buying two kinds of notebooks for school. A three-ring notebook costs $6, and a spiral notebook costs $3. You must have at least five notebooks. The cost of the notebooks can be no more than $24.

Which system of inequalities, along x>0 and y>0 would you use to solve the real-world problem?

1 answer

If t = $6 and s = $3, and you buy 5 notebooks

3t + 2s ≤ $24

Do you want > 5 notebooks?
