90 ≥ 45 + 10 + 35x 90 ≥ 55 + 35x 35 ≥ 35x 1 ≥ x
He can purchase one pair of jeans.

Billy can spend $45 on jeans after buying a leather jacket for $45. The inequality representing the number of jeans he can buy is x ≤ j 45 ​ , where j is the price of one pair of jeans. This means the quantity of jeans is determined based on their price.
