Answer 2

Hey! So 300$ is the total amount of money ya? So the amount of money spent will always be less than 300$

Answer 3

That makes sense would it be x<300?

Answer 4

Mr. and Mrs Vance will buy two bicycles with the SAME price. You can represent the price of the two bicycles as 2x. Since the rack is 65$ you would add 2x + 65. So the complete equation would be this:\[\Large 300>2x+65\]

Now, you just gotta solve :)
