    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.
