Given : A bag of chips costs 3.79 including tax Mr. Connor wants to purchase chips for his class and has a3.79includingtaxMr.Connorwantstopurchasechipsforhisclassandhasa15 budget.
To Find: Write an inequality to solve for the number of bags of chips Mr. Conner can purchase with his budget.
Solution:
Cost of bag of chips is $3.79
Let the no. of bags of chips be x
His budjet is of $15.
Since we are gievn that he cannot buy bags of chips costs more than $15
So, inequality becomes :
3.79x\leq 153.79x≤15
Hence an inequality to solve for the number of bags of chips Mr. Conner can purchase with his budget is 3.79x\leq 153.79x≤15 .
