i got the question right

The inequality that describes the situation is of:

[tex]3.25 + 5.5S \leq 30[/tex]

------------------------

  • The first step in building the inequality is modelling Benjamin's spendings.
  • He buys a chocolate milk that costs $3.25, plus S stacks of pancakes, each at $5.50. Thus, in total, his spendings are of:

[tex]T = 3.25 + 5.5S[/tex]

  • He wants the bill to be of at most $30, that is, his spending has to be at most $30, thus:

[tex]T \leq 30[/tex]

[tex]3.25 + 5.5S \leq 30[/tex]

Which is the inequality that models the situation.
