Question

Carl agrees to pay $8 more for a present than his sister as long as it doesn’t exceeds $76 what is the greatest amount he will pay

Answer 1

68 dollars.

Explanation:

The greatest amount Carl will pay is 76 dollars, so we set up the inequality x + 8 <= 76.

Subtracting 8 from both sides gives x <= 68.

Therefore, the greatest amount Carl will pay is $68.
