go to see a movie, but some of her friends are out of money. If the movie tickets cost
$6.50 each, how many tickets can Bianca buy without overdrawing on her debit
card?

Respuesta :

Bianca can buy only 5 tickets to not overdraw on her debit card.

What is inequality?

A difference between two values indicates whether one is smaller, larger, or basically not similar to the other.

A mathematical phrase in which the sides are not equal is referred to as being unequal. In essence, a comparison of any two values reveals whether one is less than, larger than, or equal to the value on the opposite side of the equation.

Given that Bianca has $50 on her debit card.

She uses her debit card to spend $14.50 on lunch

Let's say the number of movie tickets is x then 6.50x will be the total cost of a movie ticket.

Lunch cost + movie ticket cost ≤ Debit card amount

14.50 + 6x ≤ 50

6x ≤ 35.5

x ≤ 5.461

Now since movie ticket is a whole quantity so she can only buy 5 tickets.

Hence "Bianca can buy only 5 tickets to not overdraw on her debit card".
