Makayla has $8 to buy tickets at the school fair. Each ticket costs $1.50. Which inequality best represents how many tickets she can buy? N=number of tickets N<8 N5 N<5 N6

Respuesta :

Answer: Third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of tickets be "N"

Since we have given that

Cost of each ticket = $1.50

Amount that Makayla has to buy tickets at the school fair = $8

According to question, the inequality becomes

[tex]1.5N<8\\\\N<\frac{8}{1.5}\\\\N<5.333.....\\\\N<5[/tex]

Hence, N<5 is the best inequality that represents the number of tickets she can buy with $8.

Hence, Third option is correct.
