What is the maximum number of water bottles that marine can order and stay within the $300 budget? Show your work

233 bottles

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, the cost of b water bottles can be found by using the equation:

where

b is the number of bottles

1.2 is the cost of each bottle

20 is the fee for the order

Here we want to know the maximum number of water bottles that Marine can order staying within a budget of $300. So we can write that the cost must be less or equal than 300$:

To solve the equation, we subtract 20 from both sides first:

Now we divide both sides by 1.2:

So, Marine can buy at most 233 bottles.
