Jade has 100 to spend on shoes and socks. She buys a pair of shoes for 75 and wants to wants to spend the rest of the money on socks. Each of socks cost $3.50. let n represent the number of the pair of socks that jade can buy. Which inequality represents her situation?

Answer 1

Answer:

75 + 3.5n ≤ 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total amount = $100

Cost of shoe = $75

Cost per socks = $3.50

n = number of socks pairs

Cost of shoe + (cost per pair of socks * number of socks) ≤ total amount

75 + (3.50 * n) ≤ 100

75 + 3.5n ≤ 100
