Question

Sarah bought a cat backpack for $22 and some bags of cat treats for 4$ each. Sarah did not spend more than 35$. which inequality could be used to find b, the number of bags of cat treats that Sarah could’ve bought?

A) 22 + 4b ≤ 35
B) 22 + 4b < 35
C) 22 + 4b ≥ 35
D) 22 + 4b > 35

Answer 1

The inequality that could be used to find the number of bags of cat treats that Sarah could've bought is 22 + 4b ≤ 35.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality that could be used to find the number of bags of cat treats that Sarah could've bought is A) 22 + 4b ≤ 35. Since Sarah bought a cat backpack for $22, the total amount she spent cannot exceed $35. Since the bags of cat treats cost $4 each, the number of bags of cat treats that Sarah could've bought is represented by the variable b. Therefore, the inequality 22 + 4b ≤ 35 would give the possible range of values for b.
