Answer:

C. 3.25 + 5.50S ≤ 30

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

Chocolate milk = $3.25

A stack of four pancakes = $5.50

Number of pancakes in one stack = 4

Let

S = number of stacks of pancakes Benjamin buys

Cost of the pancakes Benjamin buys = $5.5 × S

= 5.5S

The maximum amount Benjamin wants his bill to amount to = $30

The inequality is

Cost of chocolate milk + Cost of pancakes Benjamin buys ≤ $30

$3.25 + $5.50S ≤ $30

3.25 + 5.50S ≤ 30.

Option C is the correct answer

C) C 3.25 + 5.50 S ≤ 30

3.25+5.50S≤303, point, 25, plus, 5, point, 50, S, is less than or equal to, 30
