Hi,

Let x represent kilos of Pork and (15-x) kilos of bangus

Question states:

buy at least 15 kilos of bangus and pork

& spend no more than Php 4000

270x + 170(15-x)  ≤  4000  



For ex:

270 - 170x ≤ 4000 -2550

100x  ≤  1450

x ≤ 14.5  kilos of Pork  and kilos of bangus ≥ .5kilos

maximum kilos of Pork one can buy is 14.5 kilos  

the less pork one buys, the more bangus one can purchase

Wish You the Best in your Studies.
