Diego has a maximum of $35 from his summer job earnings to buy shorts and socks for soccer. He needs 5 pairs of socks and a pair of shorts. Each pair of socks costs the same. The shorts he wants cost $19.95. Write and solve an inequality to represent the amount of money Diego can spend on a single pair of socks. Let x represent the price of one pair of socks.

The inequality to represent the amount of money Diego can spend on a single pair of socks, 'Y', is;

Y ≤ $3.07

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters for the maximum earnings and the number a=of socks for soccer Diego can buy are;

The maximum amount Diego has, A = $35

The cost of the shorts Diego wants, S = $19.95

The number of pairs of socks Diego needs, n = 5 pairs

Let the

Given that, 'x', represents the price of a pair of socks, we have, the inequality to represent the amount of money Diego can spend on a single pair of socks, 'Y', is given as follows;

Y ≤ (A - S)/n

Plugging in the known values of 'A', 'S', and 'n', we have;

Y ≤ (35 - 19.65)/5 = 3.07

∴ Y ≤ $3.07

step-by-step explanation:

use that smart brain

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
