PLS HELP 50 PTS

Abbey wants to use her savings of $1,325 to learn yoga. The total charges to learn yoga include a fixed registration fee of $35 and a monthly fee of $50. Choose the inequality that would be used to solve for the maximum number of months for which Abbey can learn yoga with her savings. (1 point)
35x + 50 ≤ 1,325
35 + 50x ≥ 1,325
35 + 50x ≤ 1,325
35x + 50 ≥ 1,325

Answer 1

I would say the answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

I know that it is not A and D because the $35 is just the registration fee and it is only payed once and not monthly. In those two equations the 35 is being multiplied so it isn't 35x + 50 ≥ 1,325 and 35x + 50 ≤ 1,325.

It is not B because the equation says that the amount she would pay would be greater than or equal to her savings.

So C is the only option left. The amount she would be paying would be less than or equal to her savings.

Answer 2

c. 35 + 50x ≤ 1,325

Step-by-step explanation:

Abbey's total cost must be less then or equal to her total savings, i.e.

cost ≤ savings

it is given that cost = fixed registration fee and a monthly fee of $50 per month. Hence,

fixed registration + (monthly fee)*(number of months) ≤ savings

let the number of months be x,

hence

35 + 50x ≤ 1325(c)
