Answer: 2x +3y ≤ 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Lynn's mom has 12 eggs to use for this purpose..
i.e. she can use maximum 12 eggs.
A batch of cookies requires two eggs and a batch of brownies requires 3 eggs.
Let x= Number of batches of cookies , y= Number of batches of brownies
Then, 2x +3y ≤ 12 (maximum eggs = 12)
hence, the required inequality : 2x +3y ≤ 12
