Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Inequalities</u>
The candy Scott buys cost $7 per kilogram.
Let's set p=number of kilograms of candy Scott will buy.
The money spent to buy p kilograms of candy is 7p dollars.
The condition states he will spend at least $35 on candies, thus the following inequality is formed:
7p ≥ 35
Dividing by 7:
p ≥ 35/7
Operating:
p ≥ 5
Scott will buy at least 5 kilograms of candy.
