Let's assume the inequality from part a was:
x + 1250 ≤ 1750
Now, we will revise the inequality to reflect the new spending limit of $300, which means our total budget would be $1750 + $300 = $2050.
x + 1250 ≤ 2050
To solve this inequality, we first subtract 1250 from both sides:
x ≤ 2050 - 1250
Simplifying further:
x ≤ 800
Therefore, the solution to the revised inequality is x ≤ 800. This means that the maximum amount the person can spend is $800 in order to stay within their new spending limit.
Now that you have an additional $300, revise your inequality from part a to reflect your new spending limit. Solve this inequality.
