Question

A photographer offers a photo shoot for a $85 flat fee. Customers may purchase prints for $5 per sheet. How many sheets can a customer purchase and spend at most $150? What linear inequality with variable x represents this situation? What is the solution to that inequality? Enter the solution as an inequality using x.

Answer 1

To find the answer you must first make the equation which is

(5x)+85=150

subtract 85 from 150

(5x)=65

now divide 65 by 5

resulting in the answer

X=13

To check this

(5 x 13)+85=160

(5x)+85≤150
