Sagot :
$2.75x > $9.35
$9.35/$2.75=3.4 lbs.
Drew can buy 3 lbs of seedless grapes for less than $9.35.
$9.35/$2.75=3.4 lbs.
Drew can buy 3 lbs of seedless grapes for less than $9.35.
Inequality: x = the number of pounds of grapes
2.75x < 9.35 [2.75x is less than 9.35, since Drew must spend less than $9.35]
Solution:
To find the solution, you need to isolate/get "x" by itself in the inequality.
2.75x < 9.35 Divide 2.75 on both sides to get "x" by itself
[tex]\frac{2.75x}{2.75} <\frac{9.35}{2.75}[/tex]
x < 3.4
Interpretation:
x is less than 3.4, so Drew has to buy less than 3.4 pounds of grapes in order to spend less than $9.35 [which is the most/maximum $ he has]
