Lucy can spend no more than $125 on props for a school play. She has already phurchased costume fabrics that cost $49. Write and solve an inequality to show how much more she spend on props.

49+x≤  125, where  x = Amount she can spend more on props.

Now she can spend no more than $76 on props.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Lucy can spend no more than $125 on props for a school play.

I.e. Total money she can spend ≤ $ 125

She already purchased costume fabrics that cost $49.

Let x = Amount she can spend more on props.

Required inequality: 49+x≤  125

Subtract 49 from both sides, we get

x≤ 76

Hence, now she can spend no more than $76 on props.
