    Cost=quantity times cost per one

    so he wants to buy a belt (1 belt=1 times cost per belt=1 times $22=$22)

    he also wants to buy some shirts (some=unknown=x so x times cost per shirt=x times $17=17x)

    x=number of shirts

    he has 80 dollars

    when you buy something, it is a loss so

    80 - (22+17x) >0 since he has to have more than or equal to zero since he cannot have negative dollars

    the inequality is 80 - (22+17x) >0
