Question

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?

Answer 1

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the possible number of CDs that she could buy be represented by x. Then, the equation can be represented as:

80 - 18x ≤ 20

80 - 20 ≤ 18x

60 ≤ 18x

x ≤ 60/18

x ≤ 3.33

The highest amount of cd that she can is 3 or less.
