Answer:

  20x +80y ≤ 48000

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the number of 20-ounce cans, then the number of ounces in the cans is 20x.

If y is the number of 80-ounce bottles, then the number of ounces in the bottles is 80y.

"At most 48,000 ounces" means the total of ounces of cans and ounces of bottles must be less than or equal to 48000.

  20x +80y ≤ 48000
