Li’s family has a coupon for $49 off a stay at any hotel. They do not want to spend more than $150 in all. An inequality representing this situation is x - 49 Less-than-or-equal-to 150. Explain how you would graph this inequality. What will be included in the solution set in the context of the problem?

wyattneedham:

do u know the answer

wyattneedham:

anybody

nettym:

Yea, im trying to solve it now.

wyattneedham:

ok

nettym:

Hotel Cost- less than equal to $199 There should be a closed circle at 199 then have an arrow pointing towards the left.

wyattneedham:

thx that was right

nettym:

np, so basically x represents the money spent by them So: x - 49 ≤ 150 Adding 49 both sides x - 49 + 49 ≤ 150 + 49 x ≤ 199 That is how you get the hotel cost.
