Question

A pack of paper costs $3.75, including tax. Mr. Cooper wants to purchase packs of

paper for his class and has a $20 budget. Write an inequality to solve for the number
of packs of paper Mr.
Cooper can purchase.
$3.75x ≥ $20
$3.75x ≤ $20
$20x s $3.75
$20x ≥ $3.75

Answer 1

Explanation:

Total budget = $ 20

Cost 1 pack of paper = $3.75

Let the number of pack of papers Mr. Cooper can buy = x

Total cost of buying x packs of paper = $ 3.75x

The total cost of paper pack cannot exceed the total budget.

$3.75x <= $ 20

Answer 2

B, $3.75 is less than or equal to $20

$3.75 is the price per pack

if he has a budget of $20, then the sum of $3.75x cannot be above it.

$3.75x <(or equal to) $20

AKA, B.
