It costs $50 to rent a car plus $3.00 per gallon of gas in the car. Sue can spend at most $86.00 total, so what's the most amount of gallons of gas she can get when she rents the car?


1.Write the inequality (ex. a + bx ≤ c) and show all work to solve the inequality.

2. Explain what your solution means in the context of the problem. (Hint: What's the most amount of gallons Sue can get?)

3. If you were to graph this on a number line would you shade left or right?
