document.write( "Question 165024: Suppose you want to cover the backyard with decorative rock and plant some trees. You need 30 tons of rock to cover the area. If each ton cost $60 and each tree is $84, what is the maximum number of trees you can buy with a budget for rock and trees of $2,500? Write an inequality that illustrates the problem you solve.\r

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Looks good amigo for your eqn.
\n" ); document.write( "Let's see,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"84x%2B60%2A30%3C2500\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"84x%3C2500-1800\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"84x%3C700\"$ -----> $\"cross%2884%29x%2Fcross%2884%29%3Ccross%282500%298.33%2Fcross%2884%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%3C8.33\"$ , Let's say $\"highlight%288%29\"$ trees
\n" ); document.write( "We'll see,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"84%2A8%2B60%2A30%3C2500\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"672%2B1800%3C2500\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2472%3C2500\"$ , GOOD!
\n" ); document.write( "If 9 trees,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"84%2A9%2B60%2A30%3C2500\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"756%2B1800%3C2500\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2556%3E2500\"$ , NOT GOOD
\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER ---> 8 trees
\n" ); document.write( "Thank you,
