Question

Marco wants his total purchase for the month to be less than $450 write and solve an inequality to find how much more he can spend and still meet his goal

Answer 1

Answer:

He can SPEND UP TO  $77.92 and still meet his goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows Marco's checking account activity for the first week of June.

Deposit Paycheck - $520.45  

Purchase  Grocery  -  $46.50

Purchase  Movie Theater - $24.00

Purchase - Water bill $22.82

Now, the amount that needs to be spent < $450

Total purchase  = Grocery Amount + Movie Theater tickets +  Water Bill amount

= $46.50  + $24.00  + $22.82

=  $93.02

So, his current expense for 1 week  = $93.02

So, the expenditure for 4 weeks  = 4 x ( Expense of 1 week)

                                                         =  4 x ($93.02)  =  $372.08

⇒ The monthly expenditure of Marco = $372.08

Now, his Limit Value  - The monthly expenditure  

       =  $450 -  $372.08 = $77.92

⇒ He can SPEND UP TO  $77.92 and still meet his goal.
