Chad wants to buy some books over the internet. each book costs $10.01 and has a shipping cost of $9.96 per order. if chad wants to spend no more than $50 for his books, which inequality shows the maximum number of books, p, that he can buy? 9.96p - 10.01p ≤ 50, so p ≤ 1 9.96p 10.01p ≤ 50, so p ≤ 2 9.96 - 10.01p ≤ 50, so p ≤ 3 9.96 10.01p ≤ 50, so p ≤ 4

    If you would like to find the inequality that shows the maximum number of books that he can buy, you can do this using the following steps:

    p ... number of books

    $10.01 * p + $9.96 < = $50

    10.01 * p + 9.96 < = 50

    10.01 * p < = 50 - 9.96

    10.01 * p < = 40.04

    p < = 40.04 / 10.01

    p < = 4 books

    The correct result would be 9.96 + 10.01p ≤ 50, so p ≤ 4.
