Ollie brought a sports drink for $2.25 and several canola bars that were each $1.50 Ollie paid with a $20 bill and received change which inequality can be used to find G. The number of granola bars that Ollie purchased.
Let G represent the number of granola bars that Ollie purchased.
The total cost of the granola bars is $1.50G, and the total cost of the sports drink is $2.25.
The total cost of the items Ollie purchased is $2.25 + $1.50G.
Ollie paid with a $20 bill, so the change he received is $20 - ($2.25 + $1.50G) = $17.75 - $1.50G.
Since Ollie received change, we know that $17.75 - $1.50G is greater than 0.
Therefore, the inequality that can be used to find G is:
$17.75 - $1.50G > 0
