To find the maximum rental fee that Desiree can afford, we can use the information that her monthly income must be at least three times the monthly rent.
Her monthly income is $4,500. So, we can set up the equation:
\[
\text{Monthly Rent} \times 3 \leq \text{Monthly Income}
\]
Substituting the values we have:
\[
\text{Monthly Rent} \times 3 \leq 4,500
\]
To find the maximum monthly rent, we divide both sides of the inequality by 3:
\[
\text{Monthly Rent} \leq \frac{4,500}{3}
\]
Calculating that:
\[
\text{Monthly Rent} \leq 1,500
\]
Thus, the maximum rental fee that Desiree can afford is **$1,500**.
