The phrase " no more than " means in inequality

[tex]\leq[/tex]

The phrase " at least" means in inequality

[tex]\ge[/tex]

Since she earns $6 per hour for each job, then

Let the number of hours for the first job is x and the number of the hours for the second job is y,

Since she needs to earn at least $60, then the first inequality should be

[tex]6x+6y\ge60[/tex]

Divide each term by 6

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{6x}{6}+\frac{6y}{6}\ge\frac{60}{6} \\ \\ x+y\ge10 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Subtract x from both sides

[tex]\begin{gathered} x-x+y\ge-x+10 \\ y\ge-x+10\rightarrow(1) \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since she wants to work no more than 12 hours, then the second inequality should be

[tex]x+y\leq12[/tex]

Subtract x from both sides

[tex]\begin{gathered} x-x+y\leq-x+12 \\ y\leq-x+12\rightarrow(2) \end{gathered}[/tex]

The correct system is

[tex]\begin{gathered} y\leq-x+12 \\ y\ge-x+10 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The answer is A
