For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
We have then:
x: additional amount of weight that Li can add.
We write now the inequality that represents the problem.
We have then:
[tex]x + 47.75 \leq 50
[/tex]
Answer:
An inequality that can be used to determine how much more weight can be added to the suitcase without going over the 50-pound weight limit is:
[tex]x + 47.75 \leq 50 [/tex]
