Simone needs notebooks and pencils for school. Notebooks are $1.25 each and packages of pencils cost $2.75. If Simone has $12 to spend, write an inequality to represent all combinations of notebooks and packages of pencils that she can afford

Answer 1

3 notebooks and 3 pencils packages

Explanation:
