Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Adam is ordering pizza for a company party that he needs to have catered.

Company A charges $8 for each pizza and a delivery/set-up fee of $45. Company B charges $12 for each pizza and a delivery/set-up fee of $5.

To find : Which inequality can be used to find x, the least number of pizzas that can be ordered so that the total charge for Company A is less than the total charge for Company B?

Solution : Let x be the number of pizza

Company A charges $8 for each pizza and a delivery/set-up fee of $45.

Total charge of Company A is

Company B charges $12 for each pizza and a delivery/set-up fee of $5.
