Julian wants to spend NO MORE than $1,250 on his trip. The airfare is $358. Write & solve an inequality to find the maximum amount he can spend on the rest of his trip.

Respuesta :

x = rest of the money

X has to be less than or equal to $892 because you have to subtract $358 from the total budget which is $1250

Amount of money Julian can spend on trip= $1250

Amount spent on airfare = $358

Money left for trip = Total money - money spent on airfare= 1250 - 358= $892

So writing an inquality ,

[tex] x\leq 1250-358 [/tex]

where x is amount he can spend on trip.

Solving the inequality,

[tex] x\leq 892 [/tex]

So he can spend less than or equal to $892 on the trip.
