Question 1005735: I have to write an inequality equation for the word problem. This is what I came up with. Am I on track or not?
15x + 1800 ≤ 4000.
Ed is planning the office holiday party. If the caterer charges a fixed cost of $1800 plus $15/serving, find the number of employees who can attend the party if Ed can spend at most $4000 for catering?
