Question

You want to buy some wallpaper to decorate your kitchen. A roll of wallpaper is on sale for $10. Write and solve an inequality to determine how many rolls of wallpaper you can buy and spend no more than $50.

Answer 1

let x = number of wallpaper rolls

(x * the price) will give the total price paid for x rolls

"no more than 50 dollars" implies that 50 dollars is the upper limit on the price so we will use ≤ in our inequality

put everything together to get your inequality
