Question

Q An aeroplane can carry a maximum of 250 passengers The airline
reserves at least 25 seats for executive class However, at least 3
times as many passengers prefer to travel by economy class than by
the executive class

Dear Student,
Let there be x passengers in Economy class and y passengers in
business class So accordingly,the equations are

(1) x+y≤250 (Because maximum passengers are 250)(2) 3(y)≤x (Because people in executive class are atleast three times more than economy class)(3) y≥25  (25 seats are saved for executive class)
These are the three inequalities
