Question

ellie is learning to play dungeons and dragons. She wants to purchase dice and gaming books. Gaming books cost 40$ each and sets of dice cost 8$. Ellie wants to get at least two sets of dice and wants to spend no more than 80$. write a system of linear inequalities that represent the situation. Determine if the points are possible solutions.

Answer 1

Answer: 40G+8D ≤ 80; D must be at least 2 as stated in problem and can be up to 10, and you can have a maximum of 1 game book depending on how many dice sets you get (if you get more than 5 dice sets you cannot have any game books).

Step-by-step explanation: Since gaming books cost $40 so $40G for the amount of money spent and since sets of dice cost $8 so 8D for the money spent. Since the money spent must be less than or equal to 80 we put symbol at end.
