Mr. Valdez has $95 in his budget to buy paint brushes and

boxes of colored pencils. He will buy an equal number of
each art supply. The cost of each item is shown in the table.


The inequality 3n+ 5n at least 95 can be used to find the
number of each item that he can buy. How much money will
Mr. Valdez have left in the budget after buying the greatest
number of paint brushes and colored pencils?

Answer:

3n + 5n = 8n = 95

n = 11

$95 - $88 = $7

(11 paint brushes, 11 boxes of colored pencils)
