A clinic is writing a budget plan for the yearly inventory so they can buy
additional supplies. They estimate that the cost of a set of face masks is Php 50
per box and Php 120 per liter bottle of alcohol. They also plan to spend no
more than Php 2,000. How much can they save if they bought 12 boxes of face
masks and 10 bottles of alcohol? (Let x = boxes of face masks; y = bottles of
alcohol)

answer: 600 + 1200= 1800 =2000 - 1800 = 200
answer w/ x and y : 200x + 240y = 1800 =2000 - 1800 = 200
They can save up to Php 200
Step-by-step explanation:
1 box of face mask costs Php 50 and 1 liter of alcohol is equivalent to Php 120,they bought 12 boxes of facemask and 10 bottles of alocohol
simple equation:
50 x 12 : 600
120 x 10 = 1200
600 ÷ x(4) = 200 + x = 200x
1200 ÷ y(5) = 240 + x = 240x
They have Php 2000
So,
200x + 240y = n
200(4) + 240(5) =n
600 + 1200 = 1800
2000 - 1800 = 200
Equation:
200x + 240y = 1800 = 2000 - 1800 = 200
Hope it helps
