Let:

x = Number of sodas purchased

y = Number of hamburgers purchased

The food truck charges $3 for sodas, so the total cost for sodas will be:

3*x=3x

also, it charges $8 for each hamburger, hence, the total cost for hamburgers will be:

8*y = 8y

Since Jack wants to spend no more than $30, the total cost must be less or equal than $30:


\begin{gathered} \text{Total cost }\leq\text{ 30} \\ \text{Total cost = total cost for sodas+total cost for hamburgers} \\ 3x+8y\le30 \end{gathered}
