Total money Marcus has = $28

Money spent to buy a notebook = $3.75

Money left now = 28-3.75=24.25

Money needed to be saved = $11.25

So, the amount of money Marcus can spend = 24.25-11.25=13

Cost of a packet of chips = $1.30

The inequality to determine the maximum number of chips he can buy is:

Let the number of chips Marcus can buy = x

As he cannot spend more than $13 to buy chips so equation becomes:

1.30x\leq 13

Solving this we get

x\leq 10

Hence, Marcus can buy a maximum of 10 packs of chips and  save $11.25
