Production Units for Articles A and B

Hard Word Problems Algebraic Reasoning

A company produces two types of articles, A and B. The production of article A costs $5 per unit and the production of article B costs $8 per unit. The company has a budget of $200 for production. If the company wants to produce at least 10 more units of article A than article B, how many units of article A can they produce?

Let $x$ represent the number of units of article B produced. Then, the number of units of article A produced will be $x + 10$. The budget constraint can be represented by the equation:

$$5(x + 10) + 8x \leq 200$$
