Jimmy goes to the farmer's market to get some pears. The particular type of pears he likes costs $2.35 per pound. If he can only spend $10 or less, how many pounds can he buy? The inequality would be Jimmy could by pounds of pears.
The inequality can be represented as:
2.35x ≤ 10, where x is the number of pounds that Jimmy can buy.
To solve the inequality, divide both sides by 2.35:
x ≤ 10 / 2.35.
Calculating: x ≤ 4.26.
Therefore, Jimmy can buy a maximum of 4.26 pounds of pears.
