Let x be the cost of each matching t-shirt. The total cost of 8 matching t-shirts would be 8x.
So, the inequality representing the total cost not exceeding 136 would be:
8x ≤ 136
Dividing by 8 on both sides to isolate x:
x ≤ 136/8
x ≤ 17
Therefore, each matching t-shirt should cost no more than $17 for the band to order them without exceeding a total cost of 136.
