    SETTING UP SYSTEM OF EQUATIONS FOR A MATRIX?

    The director of a public playground is ordering a supply of baseball equipment. He wishes to
    have two gloves for every ball and one bat for every three gloves. The unit prices for gloves,
    bats, and balls are .00, .00, and {content}.50, respectively. The director has a budget of 7.50.
    What equipment should be ordered?
    Set up the system of equations (don’t forget to define your variables), put it in matrix format, and
    solve using row operations to get to the reduced row-echelon form.

    i’m fine with the matrix part, i just need the equations to work with
    any help is greatly appreciated
