Stacey bought a bottle of water for $2.50. She also bought some hotdogs for $2.75 each at a football game. Stacey did not spend more than $12 on the hotdogs and bottle of water. Which inequality can be used to find h, the number of hotdogs that Stacey could have bought? A. 2.75x + 2.50 ≥ 12 B. 2.75x – 2.50 ≤ 12 C. 2.75x + 2.50 ≤ 12 D. 2.75x – 2.50 ≥ 12

Respuesta :

Answer:

C. 2.75x + 2.50 ≤ 12

Explanation:

The cost of 1 hotdog = $2.75

Therefore, the cost of x hotdogs = $2.75x

Stacey also bought a bottle of water for $2.50.

Thus, the total amount Stacey spent will be:

[tex]2.75x+2.50[/tex]

Since she did not spend more than $12, it means:

She spent less than or exactly $12.

Thus, the inequality is:

[tex]2.75x+2.50\le12[/tex]

The correct choice is C.
