Question

Madison has a budget of $600 to use to purchase decorations for an event. She needs to purchase flowers and other items. The flowers cost $400.

The inequality, d + 400 ≤ 600, can be used to find d, the amount of money Madison can spend on other decorations.

Which inequality represents all possible values of d?

Question 2 options:

d≤200


d≥200


d≤1000


d≥1000

Answer 1

d ≤ 200

Explanation:

You can first subtract 400 from 600 since d and 400 would add up to be less than or equal to 600. This would give you a maximum of $200 left to spend in the budget. So if its the maximum, d would have to be less than or equal to that, giving you the answer of d ≤ 200.
