(03.05 mc)ben has $19 to spend. he spent $7.25, including tax, to buy a notebook. he needs to save $2.75 but he wants to buy a snack. if pretzels cost $0.50 per package including tax, what inequality would show the maximum number of packages that ben can buy? solve your inequality by showing your work and steps.

2.75>19-7.25 - 0.5(x)

2.75> 11.75 - 0.5x

0.5x> 11.75 - 2.75

0.5x >9

x>18 0r x∈(18, +∞)

($19-$7.25) ≥ 0.50 p + 2.75

The maximum number of packages he can buy is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

So, he has $19 and buys a notebook for $7.25 ($19-$7.25).

He needs to save $2.75 ($19-$7.25 ≥ $2.75)

Pretzels cost, $0.50 per package including tax. ($0.50 p)

Mathematically speaking:

($19-$7.25) ≥ 0.50 p + 2.75

11.75 ≥ 0.50 p + 2.75

11.75- 2.75 ≥ 0.50 p

9 ≥ 0.50 p

9/0.50 ≥ 0.50 p

18≥ p

This inequality shows that the maximum number of packages he can buy is 18.

complete the steps to find the area of the trapezoid.

area of rectangle = 256   square units

area of triangle 1 = 24  square units

area of triangle 2 = 16  square units

area of triangle 3 =   96 square units

area of trapezoid = 120  square units
