The prices of a mouse-pad and a file-jacket are $35 and $48 respectively. Mr Chan wants to use 400 or less to buy 10 of them in total and as many file-jacket as possible.How any mouse-pads should he buy? Use inequality plaese.
Let x be the number of mouse-pads he should buy.
35x + 48(10-x) <= 400
35x + 480 - 48x <= 400
-13x <=-80
x >= 80/13 = 6.154
Hence minimum number of mouse-pads that he should buy is 7.
