The correct inequality that represents the situation is:
\( 16x \leq 50 \)
This indicates that the total cost of the shirts (which is \( 16 \) dollars per shirt times the number of shirts \( x \)) cannot exceed \( 50 \) dollars.
Demetrius can spend as much as $50 on shirts.
Shirts, x. cost $16 each at a nearby store.
Which inequality represents this situation?
50x ≤ 16
50x ≥ 16
16x ≥ 50
16x ≤ 50
