You can put this solution on YOUR website! Jerry wants to purchase some items whose cost function is c=3x+5,where x is the number of items. If Jerry spends between $5o and $80 find the minimum and maximum number of it
---------
50 <= 3x+5 <= 80
Subtract 5 along the line to get:
45 <= 3x <= 75
Divide thru by 3 to get:
15 <= x <= 25
---------
