Morgan has $60 to spend on clothes. He wants to buy a pair of jeans for $25 and spend the rest on t-shirts. Each t-shirt costs $5. Which inequality represents the number of t-shirts he can purchase? x ≥ 7 x ≤ 16 x ≤ 7 x ≥ 16

Respuesta :

Money Left after Jeans = $60 - $25
                                       = $35

If one shirt costs $5 then,
 # of shirts that can be purchased = $35 ÷ $5
                                                          =   7

                ∴  a suitable inequality is x ≤  7  (where x represents the number of shirts)


And this is true because if more than 7 shirts are bought, then more than $35 would be needed.

Answer:

x ≤  7
