Question

Nick has $7.00. Bagels cost $0.75 each, and a small container of cream cheese costs $1.29. Write an inequality to find the numbers of bagels Nick can buy.

Answer 1

$0.75b+$1.29≤$7.00
b being bagels

Answer 2

let x = bagels

0.75x +1.29 <= 7.00

solve:

0.75x +1.29<=7.00

0.75x <= 7.00 - 1.29

0.75x <=5.71

5.71 /0.75 = 7.6

x<=7 bagels
