Question

Students in the garden club are planting a flower garden in the front of the school. They have already spent $70 of the $190 budget. Write and solve an inequality to show how many $30 packs of bulbs they

can buy.​

Answer 1

30b ≤ 120

or

30b + 70 ≤ 190

Explanation:

let b be the packs of bulbs.

Since they already spent $70 on their budget, deduct the budget.

190 - 70 = $120

$30 for b

and it can't be more than the budget.

So,

30b ≤ 120

Note:

If this answer is wrong,

then include the $70 in the equation.

30b + 70 ≤ 190
