It costs $12.50 to enter an amusement park and $1.50 to play each game. Solve an inequality to find the number of games, g, Cole can play if he has $35 to spend at the park. Enter your answer in the box

Cole can play games or fewer.

15 games or fewer

Step-by-step explanation:

Cole has $35 to spend, so his admission to the park ($12.50) plus the number of games that he can play for $1.50 each must be less than or equal to $35. If "g" represents the number of games that Cole can play, then his "game tab" would be 1.5 x g. So, the inequality would be:

Admission + game tab ≤ 35  or

12.50 + (1.5 x g) ≤ 35

Subtracting 12.5 from each side of the inequality, we have:

1.5 x g ≤ 22.50

Dividing both sides by 1.5, we have:

g ≤ 15

So Cole can play 15 games or fewer.
