what is the inequality and the answer

Let o be the number of outfits Mav can purchase.
The cost of buying the bicycle, reflectors, gloves, and outfits can be calculated as follows:
Bicycle cost: $425.05
Reflectors cost: 4 * $15.19
Gloves cost: $15.79
Outfits cost: o * $29.20
The total cost should be less than or equal to the budget of $560:
$425.05 + 4 * $15.19 + $15.79 + o * $29.20 ≤ $560
Simplifying the inequality:
$425.05 + 4 * $15.19 + $15.79 + $29.20o ≤ $560
$425.05 + $60.76 + $15.79 + $29.20o ≤ $560
$502.60 + $29.20o ≤ $560
To solve for o, we can subtract $502.60 from both sides:
$29.20o ≤ $560 - $502.60
$29.20o ≤ $57.40
Finally, we divide both sides by $29.20:
o ≤ $57.40 / $29.20
o ≤ 1.964
Therefore, Mav can purchase a maximum of 1 outfit while staying within her budget.
