A business has $25,000 to spend on training sessions for its employees. It wants 45 of its employees to attend. The business wan

ts to send as many employees as it can to a technology training. The technology training costs $1,000 per person. The customer service training costs $500 per person. Create a system of equations that models how many of each type of training the business should purchase. 1,000x + 500y = 45 x + y = 25,000 1,000x + 500y = 25,000 x + y = 45 1,000x + y = 45 x + 500y = 25,000 x + 500y = 45 1,000x + y = 25,000

Let x represent the number of employees opting for technology training, while y reflects those in customer service training. Since the technology training costs $1,000 per participant and customer service training is $500 per person, the overall cost can be framed as 1000x + 500y. With a $25,000 budget and 45 participants, the relevant equations become [equations to solve].
