Answer:

[tex]162[/tex] caps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the greatest number of caps that Laura can buy

Given:

The company that makes the Caps charges $6 per cap plus $25 shipping fee.

Laura has a budget of $1,000

The cost of caps [tex]=6x[/tex]

The cost of x cap plus shipping charges is less than or equal to Laura budget

So, the equation is.

[tex]6x+25\leq 1000[/tex]

[tex]6x\leq1000-25[/tex]

[tex]6x\leq975[/tex]

[tex]x\leq\frac{975}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x\leq162.5[/tex]

So, Laura can buy 162 caps.
