Answer 1

`3.50 + 6.5g \leq 23.00`

Explanation:

Given

`Base\ Fee = \$3.50`

`Additional = \$6.50` per game

`Maximum = \$23.00`

Required

Represent as an inequality

Let the number of games be g

Payment for g games would be

`Payment = Base\ Fee + Additional * g`

`Payment = 3.50 + 6.5 * g`

`Payment = 3.50 + 6.5g`

Since, her maximum payment is 23.00;

The inequality would be
`3.50 + 6.5g \leq 23.00`
