Sasha has $55 to spend on clothes. She wants to buy a pair of jeans for $27 and spend the rest on t-shirts. Each t-shirt costs $7. Which inequality represents the number of t-shirts she can purchase?
x ≤ 4
x ≥ 4
x ≤ 10
x ≥ 10

Respuesta :

Answer:

x ≥ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x <= 4

Step-by-step explanation:

She starts out with $55.

Subtract the cost of the jeans from the total amount she has.

$55 - $27 = $28

$28 is the amount she has left for shirts.

Next take the cost of the shirts and divide it by the total she now has ($28).

28/7 = 4

With $55 dollars, Sasha can spend $27 on jeans and has enough money to buy less, or exactly, 4 shirts.

Answer: x <= 4

Which means she can buy less, or exactly, 4 shirts.
