Answer 1

Answer: A 7.50+14p<60

Explanation:

Let P represent the number of pizzas that Jacque buys.

Given, delivery fee =$7.50

Per pizza cost = $14

She wants to buy as many pizzas as she can, and she also needs to

keep the delivery fee plus the cost of the pizzas under $60.

i.e. (delivery fee) + (Number of pizzas) x (Per pizza cost) < $60

i.e. 7.50 +14P<60

Required inequality : 7.50 +14P<60
