The correct inequality that represents the possible number of games that can be played with $10 is: 0.25x + 3 ≤ 10.
To find the maximum number of games that can be played, we can solve this inequality for x:
0.25x + 3 ≤ 10
0.25x ≤ 7
x ≤ 28
Therefore, the maximum number of games that can be played is 28 games.
Our middle school is having a fall carnival. Admission into the carnival is $3 and each game inside the carnival cost $.25. Write an inequality that represents the possible number of games that can be played having $10. What is the maximum number of games that can be played?
0.25x + 3 ≤ 10; 28 games
0.25x - 3 ≤ 10; 52 games
0.25x - 3 < 10; 52 games
0.25x + 3 < 10: 28 games
