So the whole goal of this is to get the variable (z) all by itself on one side with a coefficient (the number in front of the variable (z)) of one. All you have to do is add seven to each side to get z alone and then divide by two:
2z-7< or equal to 1
+7
2z< or equal to 8
/2
z< or equal to 4
Solving a compound inequality for this solution gives solution as;
13 daytime cameras and 7 flash cameras or 7 daytime cameras and 13 flash cameras
<h3>How to solve inequality problems?</h3>
Let the number of daytime cameras be x
Let the number of flash cameras be y
Thus, we have;
x + y = 20 ------(1)
Now, daytime cameras costs 2.75 dollars and the flash camera costs 4.25 dollars and you want to spend between 65 and 75 dollars, inclusive. Thus, the inequality to represent this are;
2.75x + 4.25y ≥ 65 and 2.75x + 4.25y ≤ 75
Solving the 3 compound inequalities simultaneously, we can say that the approximate values of the numbers of cameras are;
13 daytime cameras and 7 flash cameras or 7 daytime cameras and 13 flash cameras

You would convert 17 1/4 to 17 4/16, and change 7/8 to 14/16. Then you would add those 2 numbers together to get 17 18/16 or simplified, 18 1/8.
