Question

During your class field trip, the teacher plans to stop at a local restaurant and has up to $180 to spend. Which inequality describes the most number of Combo B meals she c

Answer 1

To describe the most number of Combo B meals the teacher can buy with a budget of up to $180, we need to know the cost of each Combo B meal. Let's assume the cost of one Combo B meal is denoted by \( p \).

If \( x \) represents the number of Combo B meals the teacher plans to buy, the inequality that represents the total cost of these meals should be less than or equal to $180. This can be written as:

\[
p \cdot x \leq 180
\]

So, if you know the specific price of Combo B, you can determine the maximum number of meals by rearranging the inequality:

\[
x \leq \frac{180}{p}
\]

For example, if Combo B meals cost $15 each, the inequality would be:

\[
15x \leq 180
\]

And you could simplify it further:

\[
x \leq 12
\]

This indicates that the teacher can buy a maximum of 12 Combo B meals. Please provide the actual cost of a Combo B meal if you want a specific calculation!
