3 answers

The inequality that can be used to determine the maximum number of outfits Tristan can purchase while staying within his budget is:
490.50 + 4(14.98) + 16.44 + 58.53x ≤ 780
where x represents the number of outfits Tristan can purchase.
pick between one if these answers
58.53(566.86+x)≤780
780, is greater than or equal to, 566, point, 8, 6, plus, 58, point, 5, 3, x780≥566.86+58.53x
780, is less than or equal to, 566, point, 8, 6, plus, 58, point, 5, 3, x780≤566.86+58.53x
58, point, 5, 3, left bracket, 566, point, 8, 6, plus, x, right bracket, is greater than or equal to, 78058.53(566.86+x)≥780
The correct answer is:
780 ≤ 566.86 + 58.53x
