Question

Edward wants to spend less than $115 to buy a
new shirt and some jeans. If a shirt costs $25,
choose an inequality to find the amount that
Edward can spend on a pair of jeans if he buys 3
pairs of jeans.

Answer 1

Answer: x < 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a jean be x

cost of a shirt = $25

cost of 3 jeans = 3x

since he wants to spend less than $115 , this means that

3x + 25 < 115

3x < 115 - 25

3x < 90

x < 30
