Question

Budget ​A student group has $8,000 budgeted for a field trip. The cost of transportation for the trip is $3,400. To stay within the budget, all other costs ​C​ must be no more than what amount? ​ Write and solve​ an inequality. ​Show ​your work. Write your final answer in a complete sentence.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the budget be represented by B. Since the grouo has only $8,000, hence, the inequality can be represented as:

B ≤ $8000

Also, $3400 was spent on transportation. If other cost is represented by C, therefore, other cost is given as:

Other cost ≤ Budget - cost of transportation

C ≤ $8000 - $3400

C ≤ 4600

From above, to stay within the budget, all other costs must be below $4600
