1.15x ≤ 5.75

Pretty sure that's the answer.

Tania Cantrell · Answer 2

1.15 x≤ 5.75

He can buy up to 5 rolls.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the cost of one roll is 1.15

The cost of x rolls is 1.15x

He can spent up to 5.75

1.15 x≤ 5.75

Solving

1.15x/1.15 ≤ 5.75/1.15

x≤5

He can buy up to 5 rolls
