Kitty [74]

Answer:

The inequality for amount x (in dollars) is given by

x ≤ $33 - (cost of necklace).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of the necklace be $ y.

The amount for the necklace is constant and it is less than $33 and it is also known that the amount for the necklace will be spent.

Therefore after the necklace has been purchased and the amount deducted from $33 the remaining amount can be used completely or partly to purchase the other item.

Let the cost in dollars of the other item be $x.

The inequality for amount x (in dollars) is given by

x ≤ $33 - (cost of necklace)
