the inequality i came up with is 2x -3 is less than 5 first you add 3 to both sides of the eqaution then you have 2x is less than 8 now you divide both sides by 2 and now you have x is less than 4 make this into a real world problem

Answer 1

A store is having a sale where all items are marked down by 30%. You have $8 to spend at the store. What is the maximum price item you can purchase and still stay within your budget?

Let x represent the original price of the item before the discount. The inequality representing this problem is:

0.7x ≤ 8

Now we can solve for x:

x ≤ 8 / 0.7
x ≤ 11.43

Therefore, you can purchase an item that costs up to $11.43 and still stay within your $8 budget after the 30% discount.

Answer 2

can you make it short and sound like a 7th grader

Answer 3

You have $8 to spend at a store with a 30% discount. What is the most expensive item you can buy and still stay within your budget?

Let x be the original price of the item. The inequality is 0.7x ≤ 8.

To find x: x ≤ 8 / 0.7, x ≤ 11.43.

So, the most expensive item you can buy is $11.43 or less.
