He knows he needs a package of 12 eggs that costs \( \$ 2.75 \). After getting the eggs, he wants to buy as much sugar as he can with his remaining money. The sugar he likes comes in boxes that each cost \( \$ 11.50 \). Let \( S \) represent the number of boxes of sugar Alonso buys. 1) Which inequality describes this scenario? Choose 1 answer: (A) \( 2.75+S \leq 55 \) (B) \( 2.75+S \geq 55 \) (c) \( 2.75+11.50 S \leq 55 \) (D) \( 2.75+11.50 S \geq 55 \) 2) After getting the eggs, how many boxes of sugar can Alonso afford? boxes
Solution
Step 1 ：1) (C) \( 2.75+11.50 S \leq 55 \)
Step 2 ：2) \( S \leq \frac{55-2.75}{11.50} \)
Step 3 ：2) \( S \leq \frac{52.25}{11.50} \)
