Shane Schaefer · Answer 1

x≤ 57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's x represent the number of cars he has to sell. Total was 125 and he already sold 68.

This inequality below represents the situation.

68+x≤ 125

"At most" shows the maximum amount.

25-68=57 cars he still has to sell. After we solve, Inequality should be x≤ 57
