Your brother has $3200 saved for a vacation. His airplane ticket is $842 Write and solve an

inequality to find how much he can spend for everything else.
A) 3200 z d + 842; d s 2358 B) 3200 z d - 842, d s 4042
C) 842 z d - 3200; d s 4042 D) 842 z d + 3200, d s-2358

Answer 1

• Total amount = $3200
• Amount spent on ticket = $842
• Amount left to spend d = $3200 - $842 = $2358

Required inequality:

• 3200 ≥ d + 842
• d ≤ 3200 - 842
• d ≤ 2358

Correct choice must be A
