Easy math question

lol

OpenStudy (goho2838):

You have $5 for lunch. You bought a turkey sandwich for $2.25. Write and solve an inequality to show how much more you can spend.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If it's easy why are you asking it :P

OpenStudy (goho2838):

It's a marketing technique...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so, let x = how much you have left to spend. So your inequality would be : x < 5 - 2.25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x \le 2.75\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So now you can buy anything as long as it's less than or equal to $2.75

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Does this make sense?

OpenStudy (goho2838):

Yesssyyy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok cool
