Answer:


x \leq 40 / 0.25\\ x \leq 160\\

Explanation:

If the spending limit is $ 40 and making each beads costs $ 0.25, then the amount of accounts you must do multiplied by the manufacturing cost should not exceed $ 40.

Then the inequation that this restriction would represent is:


0.25x\leq 40\\

Where x is the number of beads made.

This could also be written more specifically:


x \leq 40 / 0.25\\ x \leq 160\\

Therefore the number of beads must be less than or equal to 160
