iren2701 [21]

Answer:

c\leq \$17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

c -----> the additional amount (in dollars) David will spend

we know that

The word " at most" in this context means "less than or equal to"

The amount David has spent plus possible additional amounts he will spend must be less than or equal to $39

so

The inequality that represent this situation is

22+c\leq 39

solve for c

subtract 22 both sides

c\leq 39-22

c\leq \$17

The maximum amount he could spend is $17
