The gym teacher has $250 to spend on volleyball equipment. She buys 4 volleyball nets for $28 each. Volleyballs cost $7 each. How many volley balls can she buy

Answer:

she can buy maximum of 19 balls.

Explanation:

Let the number of volleyballs be x

we know that


\text{(The cost of each volleyball net} * \text{number of volleyball net)}+\text{(the cost of each volleyball} * \text{number of volleyballs)}\leq \ 250

so substituting the values,


28(4) + 7x \leq 250


112 + 7x \leq 250


7x \leq 250 - 112


7x \leq 138


x \leq (138)/(7)


x \leq 19.7
