write an inequality for the situation
Allen can spend at most $10.00 on party supplies. Plates cost $3.00 per packages and napkins cost $2.00 per package.
----------------------
Let number of plates be x; value of these is 3x dollars
Let number of napkins be y: value of these is 2y dollars
----------------
INEQUALITY:
value + value <=10 dollars
3x + 2y <= 10
