A contractor can spend at most $350 a day on operating costs and payroll. It costs $75 each day to operate the forklift and $55 a day for each crew member. Write an inequality to represent the contractor's budget for the day. 75 55x ≥ 350 75 55x ≤ 350 75x 55 ≥ 350 75x 55 ≤ 350.

An inequality to represent the contractor's budget for the day is [tex]75 + 55x \leq 350[/tex].

  • Let the number of crew member be x.
  • Let the forklift operating cost be F.
  • Let the total cost be T.
  • Let the payroll be P.

Given the following data:

Total expense [tex]\leq[/tex] $350

Forklift operating cost = $75

Payroll for each crew member = $55

To write an inequality to represent the contractor's budget for the day:

The contractor's budget for the day on operating costs and payroll must not exceed $350. Thus, the mathematical expression (inequality) for the contractor's budget in a day is represented as follows:

[tex]F+Px \leq T[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]75 + 55x \leq 350[/tex]
