Answer: A.) 10c≤50

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality using the information given:

  • Mrs. Nelson is buying folding chairs that are on sale for $10.

So, if the number of chairs is "c", we can multiply "c" by $10 to obtain the cost of buying "c" number of chairs.

She only has $50, so, the cost of the chairs must be less or equal to 50.

Mathematically speaking:

10c≤50 (option A)

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
