Well each pen costs $2 and each pencil costs $1.
One of the equations would be
2p + 1c ≤ 10
She doesn’t want to spend more than 10 dollars but wants to get 10 items. So she’ll be spending $10. For the pencils.
1c ≤ 10 c = 10
1(10) ≤ 10
10 ≤ 10
Now for the pens
2p ≤ 10
2. 2
P = 5
5 ≤ 10
Anymore will go over her budget. She wants to buy at least 10 items not 10 exactly so she can buy 5 pens or 10 pencils.
