Question

A baseball team had $250 to spend on supplies. The team spent $46.25 on a new bat. New baseballs cost $2 each. The inequality46.25+2b≤250 can be used to determine the number of new baseballs, b, that the team can purchase.

Answer 1

Answer: 101

`\leq 46,25+2b\leq 250\\\\=> 2b\leq 250-46,25=203,75\\\\<=> b\leq 203,75/2=101,876`

but b is the number of new baseballs

=>
`b\leq 101`

=> the team can purchase 101 baseballs
