Answer 1

Explanation:

You are planning a skating party at a rink that charges a basic fee of $8.00 and $4.00 per person for catered parties. You don't want to spend more than $68.00. Write and solve the inequality to find the number of friends you can invite.

4x + 8 ≤ 68

subtract 8 from both sides:

4x + 8 - 8 ≤ 68 - 8

4x ≤ 60

divide both sides by 4:

4x/4 ≤ 60/4

x ≤ 15

Answer:

C
