The 8 members of a band want to order matching shirts without spending more than $136. What is the solution of an inequality representing their situation. Use t for cost

1 answer

Let t represent the cost of one shirt. Since there are 8 members in the band, the total cost of all the shirts will be 8t.

The inequality representing the situation is:
8t ≤ 136

This inequality ensures that the band does not spend more than $136 on the matching shirts.
