Concept Used:
Translate the sentence into an inequality.
The dance committee has $75 to spend on centrepiece. They spent $30 on flowers. If each vase costs $3, write and solve an inequality to find how many vases they can buy.
They spent $30 on flowers and the cost of each vase = $3.
Let the number of vases = x
Cost of x number of vases is $3x
The required inequality:
Calculation:
Let the number of vases = x
Cost of x number of vases is $3x
The required inequality:
Thus, at most 15 vases the dance committee can buy.
