Question

Raleigh went to a gaming arcade for his birthday. His parent gave him $55 to spend. He purchased $14.25 in food and drinks, and put the rest of the money on the gaming arcade. Each Game in the arcade cost $1.25. Write a linear inequality to represent how many games g Raleigh can play in the arcade

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $g$ denotes number of games that Raleigh can play in the arcade.

Cost of 1 game = $1.25

Cost of $g$ games = $\ 1.25g$

Amount spent in food and drinks = $14.25

Total amount spent by Raleigh = $14.25+1.25g$

Also, amount with Raleigh = $55

So, the inequality is $14.25+1.25g\leq 55$

Divide the inequality by 5

$2.85+0.25g\leq 11$$2.85+0.25g\leq 11$
