Tricky very tricky?

A small company produces both bouquets and wreaths of dried flowers. The bouquets take 1 hour of labor to produce, and the wreaths take 2 hours. The labor available is limited to 80 hours per week, and the total production capacity is 60 items per week. Write a system of inequalities representing this situation, where x is the number of bouquets and y is the number of wreaths

Tricky very tricky?
X+Y=60

X+2Y=80





SOLUTION:



2o EQUATION....

X=80-2Y



THEN WE GO TO THE FIRST...

80-2Y-Y=60

Y=20



AND THEN

X+20=60

X=40
