You are buying tickets for rides at a carnival. Tickets cost $2 each. You want to spend no more than $30 on tickets. Write an inequality to represent this situation.

2x<=30

number of tickets bought ---- x

2x ≤ 30

thanks, both of you

2x=30

34

To write an inequality representing this situation, let's assume "x" represents the number of tickets you want to purchase. Since each ticket costs $2, the total cost of the tickets can be calculated by multiplying the number of tickets by $2. Thus, the inequality for this situation would be:

2x ≤ 30

This inequality ensures that the total cost, represented by 2x, does not exceed $30.
