Answer:

r ≤ 29, r-5, The sale price can be compared with the regular price, r-5 ≤ 24

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Amount to spend = $24
  • Regular price = r
  • Sale = $5
  • Sale Price = r-5

The regular price will be at most $5 more than the amount Roopesh has to spend.

The sale price will be $24 or less than that for Roopesh to afford.

Inequality for regular price :

r-5 ≤ 24

r ≤ 29

Therefore, the product Roopesh can afford is $29 or less than that.

  1. What is the unknown? r ≤ 29
  2. Which expression can represent the sale price? Sale price = r-5 (mentioned above)
  3. Which comparison could be used? The sale price can be compared with the regular price
  4. Which inequality represents the situation? r-5 ≤ 24
