Ollie bought a sports drink for $2.25 and several granola bars that were each $1.50. Ollie paid with a $20 bill and received change. Which inequality can be used to find g, the number of granola bars that Ollie purchased?(1 point)

Question

Ollie bought a sports drink for $2.25 and several granola bars that were each $1.50. Ollie paid with a $20 bill and received change. Which inequality can be used to find g, the number of granola bars that Ollie purchased?(1 point)

Responses

g + 2.25 ≤ 20
g + 2.25 ≤ 20

2.25g + 1.50 ≥ 20
2.25g + 1.50 ≥ 20

1.50g + 2.25 > 20
1.50g + 2.25 > 20

1.50g + 2.25 < 20
.

Answer 1

Since the total cost of the sports drink and the granola bars is less than $20,the correct inequality should be:

1.50g + 2.25 ≤ 20

Answer 2

are you sure? if so explain

Answer 3

I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let's reevaluate the situation:

Ollie bought a sports drink for $2.25 and several granola bars that were each $1.50. Let g represent the number of granola bars.

The total cost of the sports drink and granola bars can be represented by the inequality:

2.25 + 1.50g ≤ 20

This inequality represents the cost of the sports drink ($2.25) added to the cost of the granola bars ($1.50 times the number of granola bars g), and this total cost is less than or equal to the $20 bill that Ollie paid with.

So, the correct inequality to find g, the number of granola bars that Ollie purchased, is 2.25 + 1.50g ≤ 20.
