The total amount I’m willing to spend is $400, to make the scarves it cost $5 to make the beanies it cost $3.

Question

Write a Inequality that represents the fact while making each item you can’t exceeded this limit, be sure to include the cost per item in this inequality

Answer 1

Let 'x' represent the number of scarves and 'y' represent the number of beanies.

The cost per scarf is $5, so the cost of 'x' scarves would be 5x.
The cost per beanie is $3, so the cost of 'y' beanies would be 3y.

Since you cannot exceed the limit of $400, the inequality would be:
5x + 3y ≤ 400
