dollars of each pair of socks?
a) 70 + 8s < 36
b) 36 + 8s < 70
c) 70 - 85 < 36
d) 36 - 8s < 70


Sagot :

Answer:

  • b) 36 + 8s < 70

Step-by-step explanation:

She used the amount:

  • 36 + 8s

If this is less then the entire amount of $70, the inequality to reflect this is:

  • 36 + 8s < 70

Correct choice is b

  • Lets pairs be s
  • She bought 36+8s

Now its less than $70

Hence
