Heath took $40 to the mall. So far, he has purchased a baseball cap for $16.75. Write and solve an inequality to determine how much more money Heath can spend.

Help! I don’t know how :/

Correct d ≤ 23.25

16.75 + d ≤ 40 (d stands for dollars. we don't know what number d stands for yet, so we need to figure it out. We know that he can spend no more than $40, so that is why the "≤" sign is there. He can either spend equal to $40 or less than $40 is what the "≤" sign is saying.)

So if the total money Heath can spend is $40 and he's already spent $16.75, then we just find out how much money is left that he can spend.

You have to subtract 16.75 from both sides of the less than or equal to sign (≤). 16.75 minus 16.75 equals zero. 40 minus 16.75 equals 23.25.

So now we have: d ≤ 23.25 . That is the answer.

Sorry that took FOREVER. I had to make sure it was correct.

d ≤ 23.25

answer: 1722

step-by-step explanation:

given: the mass of saturn=

the mass of mercury=

the number of times the mass of saturn is greater than the mass of mercury

hence, the mass of saturn is 1722 times greater than the mass of mercury.
