options: Represent constraints by equations or inequalities, and by systems of equations and/or inequalities, and interpret solutions as viable or nonviable options in a modeling context. For example, represent inequalities describing nutritional and cost constraints on combinations of different foods.

Create equations in two or more variables to represent relationships between quantities; graph equations on coordinate axes with labels and scales.

Create equations and inequalities in one variable and use them to solve problems. Include equations arising from linear and quadratic functions, and simple rational and exponential functions.

Rearrange formulas to highlight a quantity of interest, using the same reasoning as in solving equations. For example, rearrange Ohm’s law V = IR to highlight resistance R.
problem_activity: Task
A government buys $x$ fighter planes at $z$ dollars each,
and $y$ tons of wheat at $w$ dollars each. It spends a total of $B$
dollars, where $B = xz + yw$. In (a)–(c), write an
equation whose solution is the given quantity.
The number of tons of wheat the government can afford to buy if it
spends a total of \$100 million, wheat costs  \$300 per ton, and it must
buy 5 fighter planes at \$15 million each.
The price of fighter planes if the government bought 3 of them, in addition to $10,\!000$ tons of wheat at \$500 a ton, for a total of \$50 million.
The price of a ton of wheat, given that a fighter plane costs $100,\!000$ times as much as a ton of wheat, and that the government bought 20 fighter planes
and $15,\!000$ tons of wheat for a total cost of
\$90 million.
