Question

Mrs. Ellington has a $50 gift card to Best Buy. She purchased a DVD for $28. Which inequality shows all possible values for x, the amount of money she can still spend using her gift card?
Answer choices below

Answer 1

I think the first option is correct because after taking away $28 from $50, you have $22 left over. If you know how gift cards work, then you know you cannot go over the limit ( the limit here is $22) so the “or equal to” is included. Moreover, because you can’t go over the limit with a gift card, the value of x would have to be less than or equal to $22. If you have any questions comment on my answer so I can answer them! Hope my answer helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

4th option

Step-by-step explanation:

She purchased a DVD for $28.

$50 - $28 = $22

1. 22 < 22

2. 22 > 22

3. 22 < 78

4. 22 > 78

I would say it would be the 4th option because she can only spend less than 78.

I can be very incorrect though, don't depend on me that much. Just make sure to think about my answer and what you would answer.
