The total number of video games is no more than 72.
What is the solution set for x, the number of video games in Mark’s collection?

1 answer

Let x be the number of video games in Mark's collection.
Then, the number of video games in Anson's collection is 5x.
The total number of video games is x + 5x, which is less than or equal to 72.

Combining like terms, we have 6x ≤ 72.
Dividing both sides of the inequality by 6, we have x ≤ 12.

The solution set for x, the number of video games in Mark's collection, is x ≤ 12.
