BOOKS Jesse is filling a box with books that weigh 2 pounds each. The box can hold at most 15 pounds of books. Assuming that space is not an issue, write and solve an inequality to find how many books Jesse can put in the box.
The phrase at most means less than or equal to. Let p = the number of books in the box.
Write the inequality.
Division Property of Inequality
Simplify.
Answer: The solution is p ≤ 7.5. He can put at most 7 books in the box.
A. 5x ≤ 13; at most 2.6 pounds
B. 5x ≥ 13; at least 2.6 pounds
C. 13x ≤ 5; at most about 0.4 pound
D. 13x ≥ 5; at least about 0.4 pound
MONEY Victor has $13 to buy trail mix for a hiking trip. A pound of trail mix costs $5. Write and solve an inequality to find how many pounds of trail mix Victor can buy.
