the inequality is:

$50 + $25*x < $175

And with that we conclude that the student needs to take less than 5 classes.

We know that Mr. Bass charges $25 per class plus a fixed fee of $50.

Then if a student takes x classes, the cost is given by the expression:

$50 + $25*x

And we know that this needs to be smaller than $175, then we can write the inequality:

$50 + $25*x < $175

Now we can solve this for x:

$25*x < $175 - $50

$25*x < $125

x < $125/$25

x < 5

So the student needs to take less than 5 classes.
