Respuesta :

75x+90y<=70,000 x<=y

Answer:

[tex]75x+90y\leq 70000[/tex]

[tex]y\geq x[/tex] or [tex]x\leq y[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information is :

Two varieties of maple trees have been selected.

Let the first variety of trees be = x

Let the second colorful variety of trees be = y

One variety costs $75 per tree; [tex]75x[/tex]

The other more colorful variety costs $90 per tree; [tex]90y[/tex]

Given is - The tree budget must not exceed $70,000. This means the total cost of the trees should be less than or equal to 70000.

Thus, the equation forms:

[tex]75x+90y\leq 70000[/tex]

Also given is - Citizens want more of the colorful $90 trees than the others if possible.

The equation will be :

[tex]y\geq x[/tex] or [tex]x\leq y[/tex]
