  System of linear inequalities:

  x + y ≤  4252.50x + 40y ≥ 2,500

  Where:

  x ≥ 65.6 hours  (at least or minimum of 65.6 hours)

  y ≤ -23.6 (the most or maximum of -23.6 hours, non-existent hours)

  Conclusion:

  If Ronald has to work a maximum of 42 hours to earn at least 2,500 pesos, he will not be able to meet his target earnings because he has to work at least 65.6 hours as gas station attendant (when x ≥ 65.6 hours) and will not be able to work as parking attendant because y ≤ - 23.6 hours.

  Step-by-step explanation:

  System of linear equations:

  A system where more than one equation involving at least two variables are involved. The system may have one solution, no solution, or many solution.

  Inequality symbols and keywords:

  At least or at minimum   ≥

  At most or at maximum   ≤

  Greater than   >

  Less than   <

  Ronald's jobs:

  Gas station attendant: x

  Parking attendant:  y

  Total hours at most or at maximum: 42

  Inequality:

  x + y ≤  42

  Work pay per hour:

  As gas station attendant:  52.50x

  As parking attendant: 40y

  Target earnings at least or at minimum: 2,500

  Inequality:

  52.50x + 40y ≥ 2,500

  Find the number of hours required for each job, x and y.

  Equation (1):

  x + y ≤ 42

  y ≤ 42 - x

  Solve the system by substitution method.

  Substitute 42-x to y.

  Equation (2):

  52.50x + 40y ≥ 2,500

  52.50x + 40 (42-x) ≥ 2,500

  Find x the number of hours required as gas station attendant:

  52.50x + 1,680 - 40x ≥ 2,500

  12.5x  ≥ 2,500 - 1,680

  12.5x/12.5 ≥ 820/12.5

  x ≥ 65.6  hours

  Ronald has to work at least 65.6 hours as gas station parking attendant.

  65.6 hours is greater than 42 hours.

  Find the number of hours  required as parking attendant:

  y ≤ 42 - (65.6)

  y ≤ - 23. 6 hours

  Ronald will not be able to work as parking attendant if he has to work for 65.6 hours as gas station attendant.

  Checking for equation purposes only:

  Working hours:

  65.6 hours + (-23.6 hours) ≤ 42 hours

  42 hours ≤ 42 hours  (True)

  Earnings:

  52.50(65.6) + 40(-23.6) ≥ 2,500

  3,444 - 944  ≥ 2,500

  Php2,500 ≥  Php2,500  (True)
