Answer:
43. 171 × $4.50 = $769.50
(171 ÷ 9) × 2 = 38
38 × $7.25 = $275.50
$769.50 + $275.50 = $1,045.00
$1,045.00 × 1.04 = $1,086.80
Answer: $1,086.80 for museum tickets and parking
171 + 38 = 209
209 × $6.00 = $1,254.00
$1,086.80 + $1,254.00 = $2,340.80
Answer: $2,340.80 for the total budget

x < 3
Answer: x < 3
