    Your brother has $2000 saved for a vacation. His airplane ticket is $637. Write and solve an inequality to find how much he can spend for everything else.

    Let x be the amount your brother can spend. Subtracting the cost of the plane ticket from savings, we have:
    x <= 2000 - 637
    x <= 1,363
