shirley is making 4 dozen cookies for a bake sale .she does not want to spend more than $9 making the cookies.

write and solve an inequality to find the maximum cost per dozen cookies.let c represents the maximum cost per dozen cookies.

4c =< 9, C =< #2.25 Per doz.

To write and solve an inequality to find the maximum cost per dozen cookies, you can use the information given.

Let's start by defining the cost per dozen cookies as 'c'. Since Shirley does not want to spend more than $9 making the cookies, we can write the inequality:

c ≤ 9

This inequality states that the cost per dozen cookies, 'c', must be less than or equal to $9.

To solve this inequality, we note that there are no additional constraints or requirements mentioned in the question, so we do not need to consider any other factors.

Therefore, the maximum cost per dozen cookies, denoted by 'c', would simply be $9.
