Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]x+y\leq 10[/tex]

[tex]15x+10y\leq 150[/tex]

Explanation:

However, the question did not tell us how many items in total, we will create a concept, say she must buy a total of 10 items, that both leash and collars

Step one:

let leash be x, and let collar be y

given data

cost of one leash =$15

cost of one collar= $10

total amount= $150

Step two:

The systems of the equation for the situation is

[tex]x+y\leq 10[/tex]-------1 this is for the number of each item

[tex]15x+10y\leq 150[/tex]------2 this is for the cost of all the items combined
