Given :

Eddie went to a Nascar race and brought $55 with him to spend.

Admission cost him $35 and sodas were $6.25 each.

To Find :

A) Write an inequality that represents how many soda's Eddie can buy.

B) What is the greatest number of sodas Eddie can buy.

Solution :

A)

Let, after buying x soda cans money spend is y.

So, [tex]y=6.25x +35[/tex]

It is also given that maximum money he have is $55 .

So, 6.25x + 35 ≤ 55

B)

Now,

6.25x 20

x 3.2

i.e x ≤ 3

Therefore, greatest number of sodas Eddie can buy is 3.
