    5. Two schools A and B decide to award prizes to their students for three values honesty (x),
    punctuality (y) and obedience (z). School A decided to ward a total of ` 11000 for the three values to
    5, 4, and 3 students respectively, while school B decide to award ` 10700 for the three values to 4, 3
