t: number of sport uniforms.

Each uniform costs $9.45: the cost of t uniforms is: 9.45t

there is a shipping charge of $7.95 for the entire order: to the cost of the uniforms it needs to add 7.95

The total charge of the principal's order is less than $120 (the total cost < 120)

Then, you get the next inequality:


9.45t+7.95<120
