Pedro wants to buy some shirts over the Internet. Each shirt costs $10.01 and has a shipping cost of $9.94 per order. If Pedro wants to spend no more than $70 for his shirts, which inequality shows the maximum number of shirts, p, that he can buy? 9.94 + 10.01p ≤ 70, so p ≤ 6 9.94 − 10.01p ≤ 70, so p ≤ 7 9.94p + 10.01p ≤ 70, so p ≤ 8 9.94p − 10.01p ≤ 70 ≤ 60, so p ≤ 9
Answers
Hey Mate!!
This is the answer
because p = the number of shirts pedro can buy without pushing $70,
10.01p is the cost of the shirts alone.
For any number of shirts, there is a $9.94 shipping price, which we add onto what we have so far:
10.01p+9.94
because pedro can spend "no more than $70", we will use a less than or equal to inequality symbol.
10.01p + 9.94 < 70
If we want to simplify that to find what p is, then we subtract 9.94 from both sides of the inequality:
10.01p < 60.06
now we divide both sides by 10.01 and we get
p < 6
And if it needs to be precise, we can do
0 < p < 6
that shows that p is not a negative number
Bye✨
SOLUTION
TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT OPTION
Pedro wants to buy some shirts over the Internet. Each shirt costs $10.01 and has a shipping cost of $9.94 per order. If Pedro wants to spend no more than $70 for his shirts, which inequality shows the maximum number of shirts, p, that he can buy
- 9.94 + 10.01p ≤ 70, so p ≤ 6
- 9.94 − 10.01p ≤ 70, so p ≤ 7
- 9.94p + 10.01p ≤ 70, so p ≤ 8
- 9.94p − 10.01p ≤ 70 ≤ 60, so p ≤ 9
EVALUATION
The maximum number of shirts Pedro can buy = p
Now Each shirt costs $10.01
Price of p shirts = $ 10.01p
Again it has a shipping cost of $9.94 per order
So total amount to be spend for p shirts
= $ ( 9.94 + 10.01p)
Since Pedro wants to spend no more than $70 for his shirts
So by the given condition
9.94 + 10.01p ≤ 70
We now solve for p
FINAL ANSWER
Hence the correct option is
9.94 + 10.01p ≤ 70, so p ≤ 6
