At most 12 peppers can be bought with $18
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Total amount for peppers = $18
Cost per pepper = $1.50
Let p be the number of peppers that can be bought from $18 at $1.50 per pepper
So,
[tex]1.50p\leq 18[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 1.50
[tex]\frac{1.50p}{1.50}\leq \frac{18}{1.50}\\p\leq 12[/tex]
Hence,
At most 12 peppers can be bought with $18
