Question

Vivian won a $18 gift certificate to a Mexican restaurant. She must spend more than the
value of the gift certificate when she redeems it. Burritos cost $7 apiece, and tacos cost $1
apiece.
Write the inequality in standard form that describes this situation. Use the given numbers and
the following variables.
x = the number of burritos
y = the number of tacos

Answer 1

Answer:

$7x+y>18$

Step-by-step explanation:

$7x$ is 7 dollars times the amount of burritos

$y$ is 1 dollar times the amount of tacos

$>$ because the final price has to be more than the gift card

$18$ the money on the gift card
