Bryan is buying notebooks and pens at an office supply store. Notebooks cost $3.59 and pens cost $1.49. He can spend up to $13 on these items.


Let x represent the number of notebooks. Let y represent the number of pens.


What is the inequality that represents the situation.

Verified Answer :

if the notebooks cost 3.59 and pens cost 1.49, with x representing the notebooks and y representing the number of pens and an amount of $13, the inequality would be written as 3.59x+1.49y\(\leq\)13

Let

x--------> the number of notebooks

y-------> the number of pens

we know that

\(3.59x+1.49y\leq13\)

using a graph tool

see the attached figure

The solution is the shaded area

therefore

the answer is

the inequality that represents the situation is equal to \(3.59x+1.49y\leq 13\)
