The inequality would be 1.50 + .75x is less than or equal to 20. To solve this you would need to subtracts 1.50 from both sides, this would get you .75x is less than or equal to 18.5 next you would need to divide .75 on both sides ending your inequality with x is less than or equal to 24.6 repeating. To use this in the problem jasmine would be able to ride 24 miles with $20.
