A small company produces both bouquets and wreaths of dried flowers.
--------------------------
The bouquets take 1 hour of labor to produce, and the wreaths take 2 hours.
--------------------------
The labor available is limited to 80 hours per week, and the total production capacity is 60 items per week.
--------------------------
Write a system of inequalities representing this situation, where x is the number of bouquets and y is the number of wreaths.
------
Labor Inequality: x + 2y <= 80
Production Inequal: x + y <= 60
