Question

A slice of pizza costs $3.50. You have $25.00 in your wallet to spend on pizza. Write an inequality to represent the number, p, of slices of pizza you can buy.

Answer 1

$3.5p<=$25.00

Explanation:

If you only have $25.00 to spend on pizza it can not exceed that limit, so your total amount needs to be more than or equal to money the pizza slices cost

Answer 2

`25.00\geq 3.50p`

Explanation:

since you have $25.00, you can only spend up to that much money, so it will have to be less than or equal to , and since p = slices of pizza, you multiply that by 3.50 to know how much you can buy.

hope this helps :)
