During your class field trip, the teacher plans to stop at a local restaurant and has up to $180 to spend. Which inequality describes the most number of Combo B meals she can purchase?
Let's call the number of Combo B meals the teacher can purchase "x". Since we want to find the most number of Combo B meals the teacher can purchase, we want to maximize the value of "x".
The cost of each Combo B meal is not given, so let's call the cost of each Combo B meal "y".
The total cost of the Combo B meals the teacher wants to purchase is then x*y.
The teacher has up to $180 to spend, so the total cost of the Combo B meals must be less than or equal to $180.
Therefore, the inequality that describes the most number of Combo B meals the teacher can purchase is:
x*y ≤ 180
During your class field trip, the teacher plans to stop at a local restaurant and has up to $180 to spend. Which inequality describes the most number of Combo B meals she can purchase?
Combo A- $9.99
Combo B- $8.99
Combo C- $9.99
Combo D- $7.99
In order to determine the most number of Combo B meals the teacher can purchase, we need to find the maximum value of 'x' in the inequality x * 8.99 ≤ 180.
Dividing both sides of the inequality by 8.99, we have x ≤ 180 / 8.99.
Using a calculator, we find that 180 / 8.99 ≈ 20.02.
Therefore, the teacher can purchase at most 20 Combo B meals, and the inequality that describes this limit is:
x ≤ 20.
To find the inequality that describes the most number of Combo B meals the teacher can purchase, we first need to know the cost of a Combo B meal. Since that information is not provided, we cannot directly answer the question as it is. However, we can describe the process of solving this type of problem.
Let's assume that the cost of a Combo B meal is represented by the variable 'x.' Then, the teacher can purchase 'y' Combo B meals if the total cost of those meals does not exceed $180.
To express this relationship as an inequality, we multiply the cost per meal (x) by the number of meals (y) and ensure that it does not exceed the given budget of $180.
The inequality can be written as:
x * y ≤ 180
In this inequality, x represents the cost of a single Combo B meal, and y is the number of Combo B meals purchased. By solving this inequality, we could determine the maximum number of Combo B meals the teacher can buy based on the given budget.
