    Answer:

    A) 4k + 3p < 36

    B) 3 kitten magazines and 4 puppy magazines

    4 kitten magazines and 6 puppy magazines

    C) If bill bought 3 kitten magazines, then he buys less than 8 puppy magazines.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let:

    The number of kitten magazines = k

    The number of puppy magazines = p

    A) Write an inequality that describes the situation

    We are told:

    Bill spent less than $36 on Kitten and puppy magazines kitten magazines cost $4 each and puppy magazines cost $3 each

    Hence:

    $4 × k + $3 × p < 36

    4k + 3p < 36

    B) List two possible combinations of puppy and kitten magazines

    4k + 3p < 36

    Bill can buy:

    3 kitten magazines and 4 puppy magazines

    4 kitten magazines and 6 puppy magazines

    C) If bill bought 3 kitten magazines, how many puppy magazines can he buy?

    Using the inequality above:

    4k + 3p < 36

    4k + 3p < 36

    4 × 3 + 3p < 36

    12 + 3p < 36

    3p < 36 – 12

    3p < 24

    p < 24/3

    p < 8

    If bill bought 3 kitten magazines, then he buys less than 8 puppy magazines.
