The Sunday newspaper costs 1.80 per issue delivered and the saturdayand weekday papers cost 30 cents per issue delivered How many weeks can be purchased 79.20?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

79.20 <= x[1.80 + 6(0.30)]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, that sign is supposed to be >=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, x <= 79.20 / [1.80 + 6(0.30)] and then round x down to the integer. That means drop everything to the right of the decimal point. That gives x as an integer.
