Question

Roberto has $200 in spending money. He wants to buy some video games that cost $25.50 each. Write and solve an inequality to find the number of games that Roberto can buy.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation: Each game is $25.50 which in math means it has an "x"

So if x=1 then 25.50x says that 1 video game is $25.50

Set up the equation:

200 = 25.50x (divide both sides by 25.50 to isolate the x)

200/25.50 = 7.84

x = 7.84

You can't have 0.84 of a video game, so Roberto can only buy 7 of them.   The answer is correct good job!

Answer 2

Answer:

f(x) = 25.50x      Roberto can buy 7 video games

Step-by-step explanation:

Each game is $25.50 which in math means it has an "x"

So if x=1 then 25.50x says that 1 video game is $25.50

Set up the equation:

200 = 25.50x (divide both sides by 25.50 to isolate the x)

200/25.50 = 7.84

x = 7.84

You can't have 0.84 of a video game, so Roberto can only buy 7 of them.
