It is given in the question that

You are buying a new printer and a new scanner for your computer and you cannot spend over $150. The printer you want costs $80.

Let the price of scanner be $ x .

So we have

[tex] x+ 80\leq   150 [/tex]

Subtracting 80 from both sides

[tex] x\leq  70 [/tex]

It means , the price should be not more then $70 .

Therefore in case, the price of scanner is $75, then you will not remain within your budget .
