Jason received a $50 gift certificate for his birthday. He wants to buy a DVD and a poster from a media store. (Assume that sales tax is included in the prices.) Write and solve a linear inequality to show how much he would have left to spend after making these purchases.
All DVD'S only $14.95
All CD'S only $11.25
All posters only $10.99

Respuesta :

If have to add $14.95+$11.25+$10.99=$37.19
Then you subtract $37.19 from $50.00
Your answer is $13.81

In the given question , it is given that Jason received a $50 gift certificate for his birthday. He wants to buy a DVD and a poster from a media store.

Let the amount left after doing these purchases be $x .

And the total must be less then or equal to 50, that is

[tex] 14.95+10.99+ x \leq\leqx 50 [/tex]

And that's the required inequality.

[tex] 25.94+x\leq 50 [/tex]

Subtracting 25.94 from both sides

[tex] x \leq $24.06 [/tex]
