Answer:

$70 >= $61.50 + $5x

Step-by-step explanation:

With the values provided the only variable would be the number of gigabytes. Since Hunter does not want to spend more than $70 then the value of the amount of money he is paying for gigabytes plus the flat cost needs to be less than or equal to $70. Therefore, the following inequality would represent this scenario best...

$70 >= $61.50 + $5x
