Aleah enjoys swimming and skating with her friends. She has a budget where she spends no more than $80 a month for her activities. Swimming costs $5 each time and skating costs $4 each time. Write a linear inequality to represent this situation.

Question

anonymous · Answer

suppose she goes swimming x times in a month , and skating y times.

so the money she spends on swimming= 5x
and money she spends on skating =4y

she cannot spend more than 80
so the inequality would be$$5x+4y \le 80$$
