Claudio needs to buy gifts for 8 friends. He wants to give the same gift to all his friends and he plans to have the gifts wrapped for an additional charge of $1.50 each. If Claudio spends at least $70, he will receive free shipping on his order. Write and solve an inequality to determine how much Claudio needs to spend on each gift in order to receive free shipping.

Respuesta :

Answer:

7.25

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, the term at least means less than or equal to is represented by ≥

Let the cost of each gift = c

He is buying gifts for 8 friends = 8 gifts

Hence, our Inequality equation is written as:

(c + $1.50)× 8 ≥ $70

8c + 12 ≥ 70

8c ≥70 - 12

c ≥ 58/8

c≥ 7.25

Therefore, the amount Claudio needs to spend on each gift in order to receive free shipping is 7.25
