10. A factory produces two agricultural pesticides, A and B. For every barrel of A, the factory emits 0.25 kg of carbon monoxide (CO) and 0.60 kg of sulfur dioxide (SO2), and for every barrel of B, it emits 0.50 kg of CO and 0.20 kg of SO2. Pollution laws restrict the factory's output of CO to a maximum of 75 kg and SO2 to a maximum of 90 kg per day. Determine a system of inequalities that describes the number of barrels of each pesticide the factory can produce and still comply the pollution laws.
