Question

suppose David has $65 to spend on his ticket and shirt. he already spent $32.25 on his ticket fee. write an inequality that could be used to find the maximum number of shirts he can buy

Answer 1

$65-$32.25=(how much money is left to by shirts )

Answer 2

The money available to buy shirts is
`\$32.75`

Explanation:

Let

x------> ticket fee

y-----> money available to buy shirts

we know that

`x+y\leq65` ---> inequality that represent the situation

we have

`x=\$32.25`

substitute in the inequality and solve for y

`32.25+y\leq 65`

`y\leq 65-32.25`

`y\leq \$32.75`
