Question

Mamadou and his children went into a restaurant and will buy hotdogs and drinks. Each hotdog costs $4.50 and each drink costs $3. Mamadou has a total of $70 to spend on hotdogs and drinks. Write an inequality that would represent the possible values for the number of hotdogs purchased, hh, and the number of drinks purchased, d, .d.

Answer 1

Answer:

4.5h + 3d ≤ 70

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount on the purchased hotdog + drink has to be less than or equal to $70. Therefore:

4.50 × hotdogs + 3 × drink ≤ 70

4.5h + 3d ≤ 70

(Can also written as 9h + 6d ≤ 140 if we want all coefficient in integer number)
