The inequality is:

[tex]30h+20\leq 150[/tex]

Further explanation:

Inequalities are used for the scenarios where the resources have to be limited.

Given

Mechanic's flat rate = $20

Charges per hour = $30

Amy wants to pay= $150

Let h denote the number of hours

As Amy only has $150 dollars to pay the total amount of flat charges and hourly charges should be less than or equal to 150.

Writing in mathematical notation

[tex]30h+20\leq 150\\[/tex]

The inequality is:

[tex]30h+20\leq 150[/tex]
