Question

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!


Marco runs a mobile pet grooming business. He pays $50 per month for insurance on his van
plus $2.50 per gallon of gasoline. Write an inequality to find the number of gallons of gasoline
purchased if he wants these costs to be no more than $200 per month, where g is the number of
gallons. Then solve.
2.5g -50 < 200 g <100
2.5g +50 < 200; g <100
2.5g +50 S 200 g 560
2.5g +502 200 g 260

Answer 1

Answer:

His total expense each month is $50 + 2.5\times g$. He wants to spend no more than 200, so it has to be less than that:

$50 +2.5g < 200 \rightarrow 2.5g < 150 \rightarrow g <60$
