or (depends on what your curriculum requires)

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is asking for how many shares this person can buy when they have $2000 and each share costs $237.68

So how many 237.68s go into 2000? Well 2000 divided by 237.68 is roughly 8.14. However, you can not buy .14 of a share, so you round down to 8 full shares.

Now its time to write the inequality. Lets assign "x" as the amount of shares the character can buy. We know that they can buy as much as 8 shares, but remember that they can actually buy less than that, so anything below 8 shares and 8 shares would be x[tex]\leq[/tex]8, indicating that x, the number of shares, can be 8 and anything less than that.

If you want to be really accurate, you could also add that x[tex]\geq[/tex]0, since you cant buy 0 amount of shares. So then your answer would be [tex]0\leq x\leq 8[/tex], meaning that they can buy between 0 and 8 shares, including 0 and 8

Lmk if this helped, was incorrect, or if you wanted me to clarify anything :)
