The answer is number 4 "You have $60 to spend on hats at the mall, but you need to save at least $7 for lunch. You plan to spend the rest on hats that cost $15 each including tax"

60-$15x refers to "you have $60 to spend on hats" and "to spend the rest on hats" while <7 for ''save at least $7 for lunch"
