Samantha wants to use her savings of $1,150 to buy shirts and watches for her family. the total price of the shirts she bought was $84. the watches cost $99 each. what is the maximum number of watches that samantha can buy with her savings?

8
9
10
11

10

Step-by-step explanation: The answer is 10, becuase the equation would be:

99x = 1150 - 84

99x = 1066

99x/99 = 1066/99

x = 10.77

Therefore, with her money she could only buy 10 watches because she would run out of money before she got to 11.

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
