Question

A high school coach needs to buy new athletic shorts for the 15 members of the basketball team. The coach must spend less than $200 and needs to determine how much he can spend per pair of shorts. Write and solve an inequality to determine the maximum price for each pair of shorts. What does the solution represent?
The coach may spend up to $13.33 per pair of shorts.
The coach may spend more than $13.33 per pair of shorts.
The coach may spend up to $14 per pair of shorts.
The coach may spend more than $14 per pair of shorts.

Answer 1

If the budget is $200 and he have 15 members then we have divide the two. 200 / 15 = $13.33 per shorts. 15x =< $200. x represents 13.33. So the solution represents the coach may spend up to $13.33 per pair of shorts. If it was even 1 cent more than $13.33 than he wouldn't have enough.So he can spend up to $13.33 or less per pair of shorts.
