To represent the inequality for the cost per square foot of the new carpet, we can use the variable c to denote the cost.
Let's denote the maximum amount you can pay per square foot as M and the inequality representing the cost as:
cM
Since you have 700 to buy new carpet for your bedroom, we can substitute M=700 into the inequality:
c700
This inequality represents that the cost c per square foot should be less than or equal to 700 dollars.
