The price of one pomegranate is $ 1.59

The price of peaches is $1.19 per pound

Albert wants to spend not more than $10

The inequality will be;

if the number of pound of peaches is represented by p, then it will be;

1.59 + 1.19p < 10.00 --------this means the price for one pomegranate plus that of peaches multiplied by the number of pounds for peaches should total to an amount less than $10.00

Answer : A: 1.59 + 1.19p < 10.00
