The inequality representation of the scenario is :

  • 5m + 8c ≤ 25
  • m = 1 and c = 1

Number of mugs = m

Cost per mug = $5

Number of ground coffee = c

Cost per ground coffee = $8

Total amount to spend = $25

  • (Number of mug × cost per mug) + (Number of ground coffee × cost of ground coffee) ≤total amount to spend

  • Representing as an inequality : 5m + 8c ≤ 25

Combination of m and c that makes the inequality true :

  • Using trial by error :
  • m = 1 and c = 1
  • 5(1) + 8(1) ≤ 25 ; 13 ≤ 25

Hence, m = 1 and c =1 are valid values for the expression.
