Answer:

• The system of inequalities are x+y≥5 and x+5y≤15

,

• 4 and 2

Explanation:

As given in the question:

• The first number = x

,

• The second number = y

The sum of the two numbers is at least 5. We can represent this using the inequality:

[tex]x+y\ge5[/tex]

The sum of one of the numbers, x, and 5 times the second number, y, is no more than 15.

[tex]x+5y\le15[/tex]

The system of inequalities are x+y≥5 and x+5y≤15.

The inequalities are graphed below:

The correct graph is Option C.

A possible solution to the system of inequalities is 4 and 2.

Every other point is outside the region that satisfies the two inequalities.
