Question

You are buying pizzas for a neighborhood party. Each pizza costs $9 and you want to tip the delivery guy $5. You have $72.

Write an inequality to represent the situation.
Solve the inequality you wrote to determine the maximum number of pizzas you can buy.

Answer 1

7

Explanation:

72-5=67, 67/9=7.444 but you cant round up because you dont have 8 dollars still, so you round down, getting you 7.

Hope this helps! & have a good christmas :)

Answer 2

7 pizzas

Explanation:

You just minus 72 from 9 and once you get to 9 dollars you still have enough to time the delivery guy and you would have 4 dollars left.
