4.50 {less than or equal to} 0.25n +2.25

Answer:

[tex]2.25+0.25n\leq 4.50[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the number of toppings we can have.

We are told that a pizza shop charges $2.25 for a slice of pizza and $0.25 for each topping. So the cost of one pizza slice with n toppings will be: [tex]2.25+0.25n[/tex].

We are also told that we can spend at most $4.50 for one slice of pizza. This means we can not spend more than $4.50 for one slice of pizza. We can represent this information as:

[tex]2.25+0.25n\leq 4.50[/tex]

Therefore, the inequality [tex]2.25+0.25n\leq 4.50[/tex] represents the number of toppings, n, we can have.
