do you want to try it first ?

anonymous · Answer

yes ma'am?

texaschic101 · Answer

you solve it pretty much like you do an equation. Can you try to solve it first ? Or do you just want me to

texaschic101 · Answer

ok...I am not gonna be on much longer, so here it is....
350 + 18c <= 1000
18c <= 1000 - 350
18c <= 650
c <= 650/18
c <= 36.11 rounds to 36

she can join and take, at most, 35 exercise classes and be within her budget.

texaschic101 · Answer

oops...at most 36 exercise classes

texaschic101 · Answer

we can even check it...
350 + 18(36) <= 1000
350 + 648 <= 1000
998 <= 1000 (correct)
