The 12 members of the team want to order matching T-shirts without spending more than $216. Select the inequality and the amount resending their situation. t is the cost for one shirt.

Let t be the cost for one shirt.

The inequality representing their situation is:
12t ≤ 216

This inequality ensures that the total cost of ordering 12 shirts does not exceed $216.
so what's the answer
To find the cost for one shirt, we divide both sides of the inequality by 12:

12t ≤ 216
t ≤ 216/12
t ≤ 18

Therefore, the cost for one shirt should be no more than $18 in order for the team to stay within their budget of $216 for 12 matching T-shirts.
so the eqaution sign is greater than equal to
I apologize for the error. The correct inequality for the situation is:

12t ≤ 216

This inequality means that the total cost of the T-shirts (12 shirts at a cost of t each) must be less than or equal to $216.
oh the equation sign is less or equal to so my eqaution should be t<=18 the <= means less than equal to
Yes, you are correct. The correct inequality for the situation is:

t ≤ 18

This inequality means that the cost for one shirt must be less than or equal to $18 in order for the team to stay within their budget of $216 for 12 matching T-shirts. Thank you for pointing that out.
thank you bye
