The words "at most" mean less than or equal to, which sets up an inequality using the symbol ≤.

Price of 2 books + sticker book≤$14.00.
2(4.50) + x ≤ 14.00
9 + x ≤ 14
x≤5

At most, Dylan can spend $5.00 on a sticker book.

Hope I helped, have a great day!

2(4.50) + s < = 14
9 + s < = 14
s < = 14 - 9
s < = 5....so at most, he can spend 5 bucks on sticker books
