Question

BRAINLIEST!!Felicia had $80 when she went to a music store that charges $18 for each CD. She needs to have no less than $20 in her wallet when she leaves the store so she has enough money to buy gas for the ride home.
Which shows a possible number of CDs she could buy? Select three options.
1
2
3
4
5

Answer 1

Answer:

The possible number of CDs she could buy is 1, 2, and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to make an equation to solve to find the answer(s):

• 80 - (18 · x) ≥ 20
• 80 is how much money Felicia has; 18 is for the cost of each CD; x is for the number of CDs; ≥ is no less; and 20 is how much money Felicia needs to have left.

1.) 80 - (18 · 1) ≥ 20

80 - 18 · 1 ≥ 20

80 - 18 ≥ 20

62 ≥ 20

Since 62 ≥ 20 is always true, there are infinitely many solutions.

2.) 80 - (18 · 2) ≥ 20

80 - 18 · 2 ≥ 20

80 - 36 ≥ 20

44 ≥ 20

Since 44 ≥ 20 is always true, there are infinitely many solutions.

3.) 80 - (18 · 3) ≥ 20

80 - 18 · 3 ≥ 20

80 - 54 ≥ 20

26 ≥ 20

Since 26 ≥ 20 is always true, there are infinitely many solutions.

4.) 80 - (18 · 4) ≥ 20

80 - 18 · 4 ≥ 20

80 - 72 ≥ 20

8 ≥ 20

Since 8 ≥ 20 is false, there is no solution.

5.) 80 - (18 · 5) ≥ 20

80 - 18 · 5 ≥ 20

80 - 90 ≥ 20

- 10 ≥ 20

Since - 10 ≥ 20 is false, there is no solution.
