+73 Cyril is going to buy a coat and a hat. The coat costs 3 times as much as the hat. He cannot spend more than $120. Write an inequality to describe this situation.
+37146 $h = price of the hat
$c = price of the coat, but the question tells us THIS equals 3 x $h
So.....
the total of these two prices must be 'less than or equal to' $120
$h + 3$h <= 120 We can simplify this a bit more by combining ' like ' terms
4$h <= 120
