She ordered 4 pizzas, she realizes that her son invited more people than she thought, so she decides to order 1 more pizza for every 3 people that come to the party. The total number of pizzas, y , can be expressed in terms of the number of people that show up to the party, x . which inequality represents this situation?
y = -one third x + 4
y = one third x + 4
y = 3x - 4
y = 3x + 4
