The inequality is given as:

5x + 4y ≤ 50

Explanation:

Let the number of

Chocolate pies = x

Apple pies = y

He has $50 pocket money,and hes looking to buy chocolate pies for $5 each and apple pies for $4 each.

Hence:

$5 × x + $4 × y ≤ $50

The the inequality to describe the possible number of chocolate pies and apple pies that mark can buy is given as:

5x + 4y ≤ 50
