Let "x" be the monthly fee.
We know that the total amount spent in a year is $700, and that includes the initial $100 fee plus 12 monthly fees. So, we can write the equation:
$700 = $100 + 12x
Now, we can solve for "x" by isolating it on one side:
$600 = 12x
x = $50
Therefore, the monthly fee was $50.

B. Solve your inequality.
A. Write an inequality that represents how much more money you can spend.
B. Solve your inequality.
A. Let "x" be the amount of money you can spend. The inequality would be:
x < 5 - 2.25
This is because you have already spent $2.25 on the turkey sandwich, so the remaining amount you can spend is whatever is left from the original $5.
B. Solving the inequality:
x < 2.75
This means that you can spend at most $2.75 more on your lunch to stay within your budget.
x < 5 - 2.25
This is because you have already spent $2.25 on the turkey sandwich, so the remaining amount you can spend is whatever is left from the original $5.
B. Solving the inequality:
x < 2.75
This means that you can spend at most $2.75 more on your lunch to stay within your budget.
