Mrs. Leary wants to buy some plants and potting soil. Each plant costs $2.50 and each bag of potting soil costs $3.25. Mrs. Leary wants to spend no more than $50. If Mrs. Leary buys 4 bags of potting soil, which inequality represents the number of plants, p, that she may buy?

answer: are you

step-by-step explanation:

hey there! : )

4y < -4

we need to isolate y. we can do this by simply dividing both sides by 4.

4y ÷ 4 > -4 ÷ 4

simplify.

y > -1

5 - y > 0

once again, we need to isolate y, so we can start off by subtracting 5 from both sides.

5 - y - 5 > 0 - 5

simplify.

-y > -5

divide both sides by -1.

** remember that when dividing any side by a negative, you must switch the sign! **

-y ÷ -1 < -5 ÷ -1

simplify.

y < 5
