You have $10.00 to spend on tacos. Each taco costs $0.50. Write and solve an inequality that explains how many tacos you can buy.
Let's start with t as the number of tacos.
We know that cost = price * quantity, so we have the following inequality for our taco spend:
0.5t <= 10
Divide each side of the inequality by 0.5 to isolate t:
0.5t/0.5 <= 10/0.5
Cancel the 0.5 on the left side and we get:
t <= 20
