Answer:


\textsf{1.} \quad 4x \leq 25


\textsf{2.} \quad x \leq 6.25

3. See attachment.

Explanation:

Given information:

  • You have $25 and you want to buy some baseballs that cost $4 each.
  • Let x be the number of baseballs that you could buy.

Question 1

If the baseballs cost $4 each and x is the number of baseballs, then 4x represents the total cost of the baseballs.

The maximum amount of money available to spend on the baseballs is $25.

Therefore, the inequality to represent this is:


\large\boxed{4x \leq 25}

Question 2

Solve the inequality by dividing both sides by 4:


\implies (4x)/(4) \leq (25)/(4)


\implies x \leq 6.25

Note: As x represents the number of baseballs you can buy, and as you cannot buy part of a baseball or negative baseballs, the real solution is 0 ≤ x ≤ 6.

Question 3

To graph x ≤ 6.25 on a number line:

  • As the value of x is included in the interval, draw a closed circle at 6.25.
  • As the value of x is equal to or less than 6.25, draw a line to the left of the closed circle and place an arrow on its left endpoint.

To graph 0 ≤ x ≤ 6 on a number line:

  • Place a closed circle at 0 and 6.
  • Draw a line connecting the closed circles.
