Question

George is planning a trip to central park. He knows the hotel costs $120 per night and the round trip flight is $99. He has a budget of $750 to spend on his trip. Which of the following inequalities represents his budget to determine how many nights he can stay in central park?

120n + 99 ≥ 750
99n + 120 ≤ 750
99n + 120 ≥ 750
120n + 99 ≤ 750

Answer 1

We can automatically rule out answer choices B and D because this exceeds the total budget cost. The round trip flight will only occur once and means we will only add it once so no variable will be involved. This leaves the only answer choice to be A.

120n + 99 > 750
