Answer:


0.15*x \leq 4.5\\x \leq 30\\Where\ x \ represents\ the\ amount\ of\ candy

Explanation:

Divide the amount we have by the price of the sweets, and write it into an inequality.

The inequality symbol represents that the total price of all the sweets we want to buy cannot be larger than our budget.
