Audrey has $500 to spend at a bicycle store for some new gear and biking outfits. Assume all prices listed include tax. She buys a new bicycle for $295.33. She buys 3 bicycle reflectors for $17.86 each and a pair of bike gloves for $33.62. She plans to spend some or all of the money she has left to buy new biking outfits for $55.17 each. Which inequality can be used to determine oo, the maximum number of outfits Audrey can purchase while staying within her budget?

Answer :

The inequality that can be used to determine the maximum number of outfit she can purchase is 55.17oo  ≤ 117.47.

What is the inequality?

The first step is to determine which inequality sign would be used.

The following are inequality signs and what they mean:

> means greater than

< means less than

≥ means greater than or equal to

≤ less than or equal to

The sign that would be used is the less than or equal to sign- ≤  . This is because Audrey cannot spend more than her budget.

The next step is to determine the total cost of items bought:

Total cost = $295.33 + (17.86 x 3) + 33.62 = $382.53

Now determine the amount of money she has left : $500 -  $382.53 = $117.47

(Total amount spent on outfit) amount left

(oo x $55.17)  ≤ 117.47

55.17oo  ≤ 117.47
