PLEASE HELP I WILL MARK BRIANLIST Caitlin has $24 to spend. She spent $8.50, including tax, to buy a book. She needs to save $6.25, but she wants to buy some candy. If each piece of candy costs $0.25 including tax, what inequality would show the maximum number of pieces Caitlin can buy? Let x represent the cost of one piece of candy.

Solve your inequality by showing your work and steps.

37 pieces of candy

Step-by-step explanation:

24-8.50 is 15.50 she wants to save 6.25, so, 15.50-6.25 is 9.25. 9.25 divided by the cost of each candy (0.25) is 37

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1

idk the answer i want to say 10 but then it would be equal so try 9 but then yeah so yeah we love edgen
