Let's assume the teacher plans to buy x Combo B meals. The cost of one Combo B meal is $10.50. Therefore, the total cost of x Combo B meals is 10.50x.
The teacher has up to $180 to spend, so the inequality describing the most number of Combo B meals she can buy is:
10.50x ≤ 180
To find the maximum value of x, we solve the inequality for x:
x ≤ 180/10.50
x ≤ 17.14
Since the teacher cannot buy a fractional number of meals, the maximum number of Combo B meals she can buy is 17.
