Answer:

A maximum of 4 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequality: 95 + 11.50x ≤ 150

Okay so the 95 is his fee. Then for everyday, it's 11.50 and we don't know how many days yet, so 11.50x. The 95 dollars and the 11.50x has to equal to or less than 150 since that is how much he has to spend on vaca.

95 + 11.50x ≤ 150

-95                   -95

11.50x ≤  55

/11.50       /11.50

X=4.78260869565

You would round down since he has a budget.
