Part 1.

Let x be the number of bags. Since each bag has 6 items then there are 6x items in total. Now, since a custumer buys no more than 72 items, we can write this statement as


6x\le72

Therefore, the answer is:


6x\le72

Part 2.

Now, we need to solve this inequality. Then, by dividing both side by 6, we have


x\le(72)/(6)

which gives


x\le12

Therefore, the answer is option 2 from top to bottom. This means that Coreys uses at most 12 bags
