John is at a local bait shop; he wants to buy bait for his fishing trip. at the store, they are selling live bait for $12 a pound and natural bait for $7 a pound. john would like to get at least 3 pounds of live bait, but he only has a budget of $63. let x be the amount of live bait and y be the amount of natural bait. model the scenario with a system of inequalities. plz

The system of inequalities is:   and

Explanation

Let  be the amount of live bait and  be the amount of natural bait.

As John would like to get at least 3 pounds of live bait, so the first inequality will be:  

Given that, price of live bait is $12 per pound and natural bait is $7 per pound. Also, he only has a budget of $63. That means, he can spend maximum $63

So, the cost for buying pound of live bait and the cost for buying pound of natural bait

Thus, the second inequality will be:  

a = 11 : 4

b = 38

c = 1 for every 6

529 and 531
