Mr. Ishimoto ordered x new math books and y new workbooks for his class. The total weight of the box of books cannot be more than 50 pounds. If each math book weighs 3. 2 pounds and each workbook weighs 0. 8 pounds, which inequality represents the maximum number of each type of book that can be shipped in a single box? 3. 2x 0. 8y < 50 3. 2x 0. 8y ≤ 50 0. 8x 3. 2y < 50 0. 8x 3. 2y ≤ 50.

Answer: Check explanation.

Step-by-step explanation: 3.2x + 0.8y ≤ 50. Hope this helped!

Inequality [tex]3.2x+0.8y\leq 50[/tex] represents the maximum number of each type of book that can be shipped in a single box.

Given,

Mr. Ishimoto ordered x new math books and y new workbooks for his class.

The weight of each math book is 3.2 pounds.

The  weight of each workbook is 0.8 pounds.

The weight of x math books will be [tex]3.2\times x= 3.2x[/tex] pounds.

And the weight of y workbook will be [tex]0.8\times y=0.8y[/tex] pounds.

Since,The total weight of books can't be more than 50 pounds so the inequality representing the situation will be,

[tex]3.2x+0.8y\leq 50[/tex]

Thus the inequality representing the above situation will be [tex]3.2x+0.8y\leq 50[/tex].
