george has $23 to spend on art supplies. He wants to buy markers, paper, and glue. if the total cost of the markers and paper is more than $14, which inequality represents the dollar amount, p, George can spend on glue?
Answers
If Michael has $2 and he spends $1, how much money does he have left? We can figure this out by subtracting $1 from $2. This is obviously equal to $1.
We can use the same idea for this problem. George starts with $23 and spends at least $14. After this, George has 23 - 14 = $9 dollars left. So, George can spend $9 at the max.
We can translate this into math words by saying George can spend less than 9 on glue, so p < 9. So, a. is the correct answer.
The inequality represents the dollar amount, p, George can spend on glue is p < 9
Solution:
Let "p" be the amount George can spend on glue
Total amount he has = $ 23
Total cost of the markers and paper is more than $ 14
To find: inequality represents the dollar amount, p, George can spend on glue
Amount spend on glue < Total amount he has - cost of the markers and paper
p < 23 - 14
p < 9
Thus the inequality is found
