Question

Perfect Pies charges $6 for an apple pie.

Ayeesha has $30 to buy apple pies for the
chorus club. Write and solve an inequality to
find the maximum number of apple pies that
Ayeesha can buy?​

Answer 1

Answer: Ayeesha can buy a maximum of 5 pies. 6x is less than or equal to 30$. X represents the number of pies she can buy.

Step-by-step explanation: You take the equation 6x is less than 30 and find that x is less than Or equal to 5. You know that this equation works because she has no more than $30 to spend on pies that are $6 each. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

6 * p ≤ 30

p ≤ 5

The maximum number of pies she can buy is 5

Explanation:

Let p equal the number of pies she will buy

Each pie costs 6 dollars. She will spend 6 * p

The cost must be less than or equal to 30 dollars

6 * p ≤ 30

To solve divide each side by 6

6 * p/6 ≤ 30/6

p ≤ 5
