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 $60. Let x be the amount of live bait and y be the amount of natural bait. Model the scenario with a system of inequalities

Respuesta :

12x + 7y=60
12x3=36
60-36=24
7y=24
24/7=3.blah blah blah
y=3 pretty much
