Respuesta :

Let x be the number of people invited to the party; then, the inequality is

[tex]55+12.5t\le150[/tex]

Solving for t,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow12.5t\le95 \\ \Rightarrow t\le7.6 \end{gathered}[/tex]

This is the solution to the inequality (despite the fact that Harper cannot invite more than 7 people). Then, the graph of the solution of the inequality is

The point has to be on the 7.6 mark (not a hollow point), and the arrow points towards the negative direction.
