1. Write down the inequality for the total cost:
325 + 15x \leq 400
2. Subtract the cost of the lawnmower from both sides to isolate the drawer pulls' cost:
15x \leq 400 - 325
15x \leq 75
3. Divide both sides by 15 to solve for x :
x \leq \frac{75}{15}
x \leq 5
The maximum cost of each drawer pull is x \leq 5
2. Subtract the cost of the lawnmower from both sides to isolate the drawer pulls' cost:
3. Divide both sides by 15 to solve for x :
The maximum cost of each drawer pull is
