Question

1. you are making gluten-free baked goods for a bake sale. one type of gluten-free flour costs $7 for a 3-pound bag. you can spend at most $28. let n be the number of 3-pound bags of gluten-free flour you can buy. write an inequality that represents the situation.

Explanation:

Step1: Determine cost per bag

Each bag costs $7, so for \( n \) bags, total cost is \( 7n \).

Step2: Set up inequality

You can spend at most $28, so total cost \( 7n \) must be less than or equal to 28.
\( 7n \leq 28 \)

Answer:

\( 7n \leq 28 \)
