Please help me!
You have $5 for lunch. You bought a turkey sandwich for $2.25.
A. Write an inequality that represents how much more money you can spend.
B. Solve your inequality.
A. Let x be the amount of money you can spend. The inequality is:
x < 5 - 2.25
B. Simplify the inequality:
x < 2.75
Therefore, you can spend a maximum of $2.75 more on lunch.
what?
can you explain more please
A. To represent how much more money you can spend, we need to find the difference between your budget and the amount you spent on the turkey sandwich. Let's call the additional amount you can spend "x". The inequality representing this is:
$5 - $2.25 ≤ x
B. To solve the inequality, we need to subtract $2.25 from $5:
$5 - $2.25 = $2.75
So, the solution to the inequality is x ≤ $2.75.
