Answer :

Given:

There are given that the fish is smaller than 12 inches in length for $3.00.

Explanation:

Since the fish cost $3.00, he can only afford fish smaller than 12 inches.

Let x represent the length of the fish.

Then,

(a):

According to part (a), the inequality is:

[tex]6\leq x<12[/tex]

And,

(b):

The largest fish you can sell for $4.50 would be close to but not equal to 12.

Final answer:

Hence, the answer is shown below:

[tex](a).6\leqslant(x\lt12)[/tex]

And,

(b). The largest fish you can sell for $4.50 would be close to but not equal to 12.
