Respuesta :

Answer: 4 Shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Person has [tex]\$80[/tex]

Pant costs [tex]\$29[/tex] and shirt costs [tex]\$12[/tex]

Suppose [tex]x\ \text{and}\ y[/tex] as number of pant and shirts

Spent money must be equal or less than the total money. The inequality becomes

[tex]\Rightarrow 80\geq29x+12y[/tex]

For 1 pair of pants that is, 1 pants

[tex]\Rightarrow 80\geq 29+12y\\\Rightarrow 51\geq 12y\\\Rightarrow 4.25\geq y[/tex]

That is maximum number of shirts that can be bought are 4.
