Question

Please help

Andrea has $18 to spend. She spent $6.50, including tax, to buy a notebook. She needs to save $5.75, but she wants to buy a snack. If candy bars cost $1.15 per package including tax, what inequality would show the maximum number of packages that Andrea can buy? Solve your inequality by showing your work and steps.

Answer 1

subtract 18 And 6.50

Answer 2

I got 11.5

Answer 3

5.75≤x-1.15c≤11.5
where x is equal to the total dollars and c is the number of candy bars.
5.75≤x means that Andrea must have at least $5.75
x≤11.5 means that Andrea must have no more than $11.50 (after buying a notebook)
The x-1.15c represents the money lost per candy bar purchased.
