Question

Nick has 7.00$. Bagels cost 0.75$ each and a small container of cream cheese is 1.29$. Write an inequality to find the number of bagels nick can buy. Identify what your variable represents

Answer 1

The inequality to find number of Bangles that Nick bought is 9.3 - 1.72 c

Explanation:

Given as :

The total money that Nick has = $7

The price of each Bagels = $0.75

The price of each cream cheese container = $1.29

Let The number of Bangles that Nick bought = b

Let The number of cream cheese container that Nick bought = c

Now, According to question

The total money that Nick spend = price of each Bagels × number of Bangles bought + price of each container × number of container bought

i.e $0.75 × b + $1.29 × c = $7

Or, $0.75 × b = $7 - $1.29 × c

Or, b =
`(7 -  1.29 c)/(0.75)`

∴ b = 9.3 - 1.72 c

So, The number of Bangles that Nick bought = b = 9.3 - 1.72 c

Hence The inequality to find number of Bangles that Nick bought is 9.3 - 1.72 c Answer
