Marcy is making each of her 7 friends a bracelet. She does not want to spend more than $42 on the bracelets. How much money can Marcy spend on each bracelet? Write, solve, and graph an inequality.

Answer 1

42/7 = $6 maximum to spend on each of 6 friends with $42

7f < 42

f < 42/7

f < 6

graph it on a real number line by putting a small round dot, blackened, then draw a long from that point to the right, and put an arrow at the right end of the line somewhere to indicate the line goes forever to the right.

in 2 D, draw a vertical line x=6, and shade everything to the right of that line Put some arrows to indicate it goes forever to the right of the line
