Marcus can spend no more than $120 on jeans and shirts for school. He buys 3 pairs of jeans at $32 each. If x represents the dollar amount he can spend on shirts, which of the following inequalities could be used to determine the possible values for x?
(A) (3) × 32 - x ≤ 120
(B) (3) × 32 - x ≥ 120
(C) (3) × 32 + x ≤ 120
(D) (3) × 32 + x ≥ 120
(E) x ≤ (3) × 32

(E) x ≤ (3) × 32
Marcus can spend no more than $120 on jeans and shirts for school-Total money spent ≤ 120. -(1)
3 pairs of jeans at $32 each-Money spent =$32 x 3 -(2)
Now x is the total dollar amount he can spend on shirts .

Hence ,total money spent on shirts found from (1) & (2) is ≤ (120 - $32 x 3).
So[spoiler],x ≤ (120 - 32 x 3)
i.e. (32 x 3 + x) ≤ 120 So,C[/spoiler]
It takes time and effort to explain, so if my comment helped you please press Thanks button :)



Just because something is hard doesn't mean you shouldn't try,it means you should just try harder.

(E) x ≤ (3) × 32
spent on jeans = (3) × 32
cannot spend more than $120
so (3) × 32 + x≤ 120 Ans C
