The inequality which is used to find the number of cups of yogurt Monica can buy is,
[tex]1.20x+2.5\leq20[/tex]
Inequality equation is the equation in which the two expressions are compared with greater than, less than or other inequality signs.
Monica needs to buy a gallon of milk that costs $2.50. She also wants to buy yogurt, which costs $1.20 a cup. Let suppose the number of cups of yogurt bought by Monica is x.
As she has only $20. Thus, the inequality expression which can be used for this condition is,
[tex]1.20x+2.5\leq20[/tex]
Solve the above equation and find the value of x,
[tex]1.20x\leq20-2.5\\1.20x\leq17.5[/tex]
Divide both side with 1.20,
[tex]x\leq\dfrac{17.5}{1.20}\\x\leq14.58\overline3[/tex]
Hence, the number of cups she can Monica is 14.
Thus, the inequality which is used to find the number of cups of yogurt Monica can buy is,
[tex]1.20x+2.5\leq20[/tex]
