6.1 Linear Inequalities in Two Variables

Justin charges RM11 to mow a small lawn and RM26 to mow a large lawn. He would like to make at least RM130.

Write an inequality that describes the situation.

Let x = # of small lawns mowed and

Let y = # of large lawns mowed

• 11x + 26y ≥ 130

• 11x + 26y > 130

• 11x + 26y ≤ 130

• 11x + 26y < 130
