You are buying pizzas for a neighborhood party each pizza costs $9 you have $72 at most to spend on pizza, write an inequality to represent this situation. use the variable p ro represent gow many pizzas you can purchase

p = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

well all you have to do is divide 72 by 9 which you get 8

so you can buy 8 pizzas.

From the number line we have x < -1.

Because:

2 - 24x > 18 - 8x      subtract 2 from both sides

-24x > 16 - 8x      add 8x to both sides

-16x > 16      change the signs

16x < -16      divide both sides by 16

x < -1
