Answer: -4x+5>-5=x>2.5
-25>-5(x+2.5)=x<2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x+5>-5 -25>-5(x+2.5)
-5 -5 -25>-5x-12.5
-4x>-10 +12.5 +12.5
/-4 /-4 -12.5>-5x
x>2.5 /-5 /-5
2.5>x
x<2.5
Total money Marcus has = $28
Money spent to buy a notebook = $3.75
Money left now = 
Money needed to be saved = $11.25
So, the amount of money Marcus can spend = 
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:

Solving this we get

Hence, Marcus can buy a maximum of 10 packs of chips and save $11.25
Let the number be x
The sum of 2 equal numbers is simply x+x or 2x.
