document.write( "Question 318755: Imagine you want to cover a backyard with decorative rock and plant some trees. You need 30 tons of rock to cover the area. If each ton costs $75 and each tree is $93, what is the maximum number of trees you can buy with a budget of $2,500? Write an inequality that illustrates the problem and solve. Express your answer as an inequality.\r

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The cost of rock=\"75%2AR\", where \"R\" is the number of tons of rock you buy.
\n" ); document.write( "The cost of trees=\"93%2AT\", when \"T\" is the number of trees you buy.
\n" ); document.write( "Total Cost=\"C=75R%2B93T\", you know you have to buy 30 tons of rock, so \"R=30\".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=75%2830%29%2B93T\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"C=2250%2B93T%3C=2500\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"93T%3C=250\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"T%3C=250%2F93\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Since \"250%2F93\" is about \"2.7\", then you can only buy 2 trees once you buy all of the rock.\r
