Since we have 5 girls and their parents give each other $10, they have in total $50.
Now, let x be the number of pizzas they buy, since each pizza cost $7.25 the total cost for x pizzas is:
[tex]7.25x[/tex]this should be less or equal to $50 (otherwise the girls go over budget), then the inequality that represents this situation is:
[tex]7.25x\leq50[/tex]Now, solving the inequality we get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 7.25x\leq50 \\ x\leq\frac{50}{7.25} \\ x\leq6.9 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, they can buy a maximum of 6 pizzas without going over budget.
