Let us begin by writing the given information

It takes him 15 min to do an oil change and 24 min to do a tire change

x is the number of oil changes he does and y is the number of tire changes

The number of minutes he take him to do x oil changes is:


=\text{ 15x minutes}

The number of minutes he takes him to do y tire changes is:


=\text{ 24y minutes}

The inequality that describes how many oil changes and tire changes Ahmed can do in 180 minutes is:


15x\text{ + 24y }\leq\text{ 180}

Whenever we use the word 'at most', we are saying that the maimum number of minutes is 180 but it can be less.

Answer:


15x\text{ + 24y }\leq\text{ 180}
