Answer:

3a+5b

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable 1:  a = candy corn

Variable 2: b = chocolate

Inequality 1:  60 ≥ 3a + 5b

Inequality 2: 20 ≤ 3a + 5b

The inequalities are as such because Josh needs to spend no greater than $60.  He must also buy at least 20 bags of candy.  The candy corn costs $3, while the chocolate costs $5.  An expression for the total cost of the candy would be 3a + 5b.
