A local bakery makes two types of pastries: croissants and scones. The number of croissants produced is represented by the variable C, and the number of scones is represented by S. The bakery has the following conditions for production:

Each croissant requires 3 units of flour.
Each scone requires 2 units of flour.
The bakery has a total of 150 units of flour available.

If the bakery decides to use all its available flour, which of the following equations models the relationship between croissants and scones?

$$3C + 2S = 150$$

$$2C + 3S = 150$$

$$C + S = 150$$

$$3C + S = 150$$
