Question

Andrea has $18 to spend. She spent $6.50, including tax, to buy a notebook. She needs to save $5.75, but she wants to buy a snack. If candy bars cost $1.15 per package including tax, what inequality would show the maximum number of packages that Andrea can buy? Solve your inequality by showing your work and steps. (10 points)

Answer 1

The number of candy packages is going to be represented by the variable c.

6.50 – 5.75

18 – 6.5 - 1.15c ≥ 5.75

11.5 - 1.15c ≥ 5.75

Subtract 11.5 from both sides

-1.15c ≥ -5.75

Divide both sides by -1.15 and flip the sign.

You answer be c ≤ 5
