Alicia is mixing paint. She has a bucket that contains 5 pints
of paint. She adds 2 pint containers of paint to the bucket
until she has at most 8 pints of paint in the bucket. How
many containers of paint can she add to the bucket?

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x+5\leqslant 8[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x\leqslant 8-5[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x\leqslant 3[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x\leqslant \dfrac{3}{2}=1\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
