Answer 3

Did you have any ideas?

Answer 4

Do you understand the question?

Answer 5

the equation is simple

Answer 6

Each game costs .25 EACH, so we will have a variable there. The carnival admission is a ONE-TIME payment, so it does NOT have a variable. And if we have $10 we can only spend $10 or less than that.

So what will our answer be?

Answer 7

yes

Answer 8

first you want toget something that is less than 10

Answer 9

then you have paid 3 and still have to pay for the game itself

Answer 10

@TIMDAVE Not quite, you can spend $10 too, so it's less than or EQUAL to.
