Question

Harper only has $15 to spend at the grocery store. She buys Doritos that cost $2 per bag and one sandwich for $8. Which solution set would represent the options for the number of bags of Doritos she can buy.

Answer 1

2d + 8 ≤ 15

Explanation:

Let the amount of Doritos bags be represented by d.

2d + 8 ≤ 15

With this, we can solve.

2(3) + 8 ≤ 15

6 + 8 ≤ 15

14 ≤ 15

The equation is true, and we cannot go any further.

The answer is ≤ 3.

Hope this helps. Have a nice day.

Answer 2

2x + 8 ≤ 15

Explanation:

Hi,

2x represents the cost for each bag of doritios. The 8 is the cost of the sandwitch. And 15 is how much money she can spend :)
