The field has a promotion that says, "Get \$10$10dollar sign, 10 off if you spend \$75$75dollar sign, 75 or more!" Carolina wonders how many paintballs she needs to buy along with the entrance fee to get the promotion.Let BBB represent the number of paintballs that Carolina buys.1) Which inequality describes this scenario?

Answer 1

The inequality that describes this scenario is:

$18 + 0.08B \geq 75$

----------------------

• The entrance fee is of $18.
• Each paintball costs $0.08.
• Thus, the cost of buying B paintballs is given by:

$C(B) = 18 + 0.08B$

----------------------

• For the promotion, the spending must be of at least $75, thus, the inequality that describes this scenario is:

$C(B) \geq 75$

$18 + 0.08B \geq 75$
