    x > 0

    y >0

    7x + 5y ≤ 70

    3 x + 15 y ≤ 60

    Above system of 4 inequalities is for Chloe's Possible purchases.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The total budget of spending = $ 70 (maximum)

    Total space available = 60 cubic inches

    Let x = number of bracelets

    y = number of t-shirts

    Cost of each bracelet = $7

    ⇒ cost of x bracelets = x ($7) = 7x

    Cost of each t - shirt = $5

    ⇒ cost of y t shirts = y ($5) = 5y

    So, the total expenditure on souvenirs = 7x + 5y

    Inch of space taken by each bracelet = 3 inches

    ⇒ Inch of space taken by x bracelets = x (3 inches) = 3 x

    Inch of space taken by each t - shirt = 15 inches

    ⇒ Inch of space taken by y t shirts = y (15) inches = 15 y

    So, the total Inch of space taken by souvenirs = 3 x + 15 y

    According to the question:

    x > 0

    y >0

    7x + 5y ≤ 70

    3 x + 15 y ≤ 60

    is the system of 4 inequalities for Chloe's Possible purchases.
