Let x be the number of outfits she can buy.
The total amount spent on the reflectors and gloves is 3*4.90 + 37.94 = $<<3*4.90+37.94=57.64>>57.64
The total amount spent on the bike and the other items is 319.28 + 57.64 = $<<319.28+57.64=376.92>>376.92
The inequality representing the number of outfits she can buy while staying within her budget is:
77.02x ≤ 680 - 376.92
