Answer:

$36.25+$3.89x≤$58.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of folders with paper Jessica buys. If Jessica buys x folders for $3.89 each, then she pays $3.89x for all x folders.

She wants to buy one backpack for $36.25, so her total buying costs

$36.25 + $3.89x

Jessica saved a total of $58.50 to spend on school supplies, then her total buying cannot exceed this sum, so  the answer would be $58.50.
