well lets start by taking 27 away from 55 to get 28. so we now have $28.00 to spend on shirts. Do 28 divided by 7 and you will get your answer.

The inequality which represents the number of t-shirts she can purchase will be \(x\leq 4\).

What is inequality ?

Inequality is a statement of an order relationship—greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, or less than or equal to—between two numbers or algebraic expressions.

We have,

Total money \(=\$\ 55\)

Price of pair of jeans \(=\$\ 27\)

Price of one t-shirt \(=\$\ 7\)

So,

Money left \(55-27=\$\ 28\)

So,

Number of t-shirt can be bought \(=\$\ \frac{28}{7} =\$\ 4\)

So,

The inequality represents the number of t-shirts she can purchase will be  \(x\leq 4\).

Hence we can say that the inequality which represents the number of t-shirts she can purchase will be \(x\leq 4\).
