Answer:

80 is less than or equal to 22+7x

8 DVDs

Explanation:

I don't have the inequality signs sorry if you don't know its the symbol thats opening to the left with a line underneath

80 is less than or equal to 22+7x

subtract 22

58 is less than or equal to 7x

divide and flip the sign to the right

x is greater than or equal to 8.29

so he can buy 8 DVDs in total
