Nick has $7.00. bagels cost $0.75 each, 12. and a small container of cream cheese costs $1.29. write an inequality to find the numbers of bagels nick can buy. identify what your variable represents.

To answer this you would first start with a representation of the situation. See the attached step 1. Use this inequality to find the number of bagels he can get by solving it.

See step two in the attached picture for the work necessary to solve this.

The answer is not a whole number, so you have to round down to make it a whole number of bagels.

The answer is he could by seven or less bagels. You should substitute this in to prove it works.

I believe its 80 if you derive it out, but there is no units of measurement.
