Answer: 75 < x < 125.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of money in your wallet.  

The phrase "100 dollars give or take 25" means wallet can have money between (100-25) dollars and (100+25) dollars.

i.e. 100-25 < x < 100+25

⇒ 75 < x < 125.

That means the amount of money in your wallet lies between 75 dollars and 125 dollars.

Hence, the inequality to describe the amount of money in your wallet is 75 < x < 125.
