Answer 1

Answer:

4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of t-shirts that Maya can buy.

We have been given that Maya is taking her friends to a concert each ticket costs $25 and souvenir t-shirts are $12 each.

Since 1 t-shirt costs $12, so cost of x t-shirts wold be 12x.

We have been given that Maya bought 3 tickets, so amount spent on 3 tickets would be $\ 25\times 3=\ 75$.

We are also told that there is a $4 service fee for the entire purchase, so we can represent our given information in an inequality as:

$12x+75+3\leq 130$

$12x+78\leq 130$

$12x+78-78\leq 130-78$

$12x\leq 52$

$\frac{12x}{12}\leq \frac{52}{12}$

$x\leq 4.33333$

Therefore, the maximum number of t-shirts that Maya can buy is 4.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: 3 T-shirts=75+4 (4 is the service fee) 130-79= 51. 51/12= 4 (I think it’s right)
