Connor went to the county fair with $32.50 in his pocket. He bought a hot dog and a drink for $4.50 and then

wanted to spend the rest of his money on ride tickets, which cost $2.00 each. Write an inequality to represent
the total spent where r is the number of tickets purchased.

Answer:

The answer is 14.

Explanation:

4.50 + 2.00x ≤ 32.50

32.50 - 4.50 = 28

28 / 2.00 = 14

The total number of tickets he can buy is 14.
