Dear student
Let the person purchase x jars of the liquid product and y packets of the dry product
Now, x jars of liquid product and y packets of dry product contain 5x+y unitsof chemical A
 As the person requires 10 units of chemical A for his anaylsisso the constraint is 5x+y≥10Similarly, the constraints for the chemical B and chemical C are respectively2x+2y≥12and x+4y≥12
