A pound of seedless red grapes costs $2.75. Drew must spend less than $9.35 on a bunch of seedless red grapes.

Inequality:

Solution:

Interpretation:

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.

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]
