Question

You have $4.50. Each piece of candy at the candy store costs $0.15. Write and solve an inequality that represents the number of gum balls you can buy.

Answer 1

`0.15*x \leq 4.5\\x \leq 30\\Where\ x \ represents\ the\ amount\ of\ candy`

Explanation:

Divide the amount we have by the price of the sweets, and write it into an inequality.

The inequality symbol represents that the total price of all the sweets we want to buy cannot be larger than our budget.
