Thel and Lo are in charge of purchasing supplies for their school film program. Thel and Lo have at most $350 to spend. Write an inequality representing the amount Thel, x, and Lo, y have to spend.

Answer 1

Total spent must be less than 350

Therefore,

x + y <= (less than or equal to) 350, where x and y are greater than or equal to 0.

Answer 2

x+y <= 350

Note that there are two inequalities that should be added to this, as you will learn at some point:

x >= 0

y >= 0
