You buy hamburgers at a fast food restaurant. A hamburger costs $0.49. You must have at most $3 to spend. Write an inequality for the number of hamburgers (b) you can buy

Respuesta :

Answer:

x ≤  6.12

Step-by-step explanation:

If the cost of 1 hamburger in a restaurant is $0.49, the amount of hamburger $3 can buy is expressed as shown .

$0.49 = 1

$3 ≤ x (since you have maximum of $3 to spend. It cant be more than that)

cross multiply to find the expression for x.

$0.49 * x  ≤  $3 * 1

$0.49x  ≤  $3

Divide both sides by $0.49

$0.49x/$0.49  ≤  $3/$0.49

x ≤  $3/$0.49

x ≤  6.12

The number of hamburgers you can buy is represented by the inequality x ≤  6.12
