Courtney has $50 to spend at the county fair. She spends $10 on admission and $15 on snacks. The games at the fair cost $1.25 each. Which inequality could be used to find the maximum number of x games that Courtney can play while at the fair?

10+15+1.25x is the answer

25 + 1.25x ≤ 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Spending on admission = $ 10,

Spending on snacks = $ 15,

So, the total spending on admission and snacks = 10 + 15 = 25,

Also, the cost of game is $1.25 each.

Thus, the total cost of x games = 1.25x

That is,

The total spending = (25 + 1.25x) dollars,

According to the question,

He has $50 to spend at the county fair,

⇒ total spending ≤ 50

⇒ 25 + 1.25x ≤ 50

Which is the required inequality.
