Inequality that represents this situation: 9.50+3.50x?35 Drag each number to show if it is a solution to both the inequality and the problem situation, to the inequality only, or if it is not a solution. 4 314 912 4.25 ?2 2 Solution to BOTH the inequality and the situation Solution to the inequality ONLY NOT a solution

Answer:

The answer in the procedure

Explanation:

Let

x-----> the number of snacks

we know that

The inequality that represent this situation is


9.50+3.50x\leq 35

Solve for x


3.50x\leq 35-9.50


3.50x\leq 25.50


x\leq 7.3\ snacks

The maximum number of snacks is 7

The solution for the inequality is all real numbers less than or equal to 7.3 snacks

The solution for the problem situation is all whole positive numbers less than or equal to 7 snacks

Verify each case

case 1) 4 snacks

Is a solution to both the inequality and the problem situation

case 2) 314 snacks

Is not a solution

case 3) 912 snacks

Is not a solution

case 4) 4.25 snacks

Solution to the inequality ONLY
