The inequality for the number of cups of lemonade she can buy is :

0 < c < 5.

Marilyn has $40 to spend in the amusement park.

Admission price = $20

So money left = 40 - 20 = $20

Now she plans to buy a sandwich for $5.

So the money left now will be = 20 - 5 = $15

Price of a cup of lemonade = $3

Marilyn can buy at most $15/3 = 5 cups of lemonade.

She can either choose to not buy a cup of lemonade or can buy at most 5 cups of lemonade.

So the inequality for the number of cups of lemonade she can buy will be

0 < c < 5 , where 'c' denotes the number of cups of lemonade.
