: Tickets to a concert cost $25 for lower-level seats and $10 for upper-level seats.
A company plans to buy up to 30 tickets for employees and spend up to $500. Write
and graph a system of linear inequalities to represent all the possible combinations of lower-level and upper-level tickets the company can buy.
I got: x + y is less than or equal to 30
25x + 10y is less than or equal to 500
my problem: I don't know where to go from here to graph.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Tickets to a concert cost $25 for lower-level seats and $10 for upper-level seats.
A company plans to buy up to 30 tickets for employees and spend up to $500. Write
and graph a system of linear inequalities to represent all the possible combinations of lower-level and upper-level tickets the company can buy.
I got: x + y is less than or equal to 30
25x + 10y is less than or equal to 500
----------
Solve each for y and then graph.
x>=0
y>=0
y <= 30 - x
y <= (-5/2)x + 50
------------------------
Graph the equalities as they are the boundary of the inequalities.
Graph y = -x+30 and y = (-5/2)x + 50
--------------
Shade the halfplane BELOW the line as you want "less than"
Shade the halfplan BELOW the 2nd line for the same reason.
=========
The solution set is the set of all points that satisfy both conditions.
Since x and y are not negative the points are restricted to Quadrant I.
