Asked by Gwen

You have $60.00 in your wallet and want to buy some new CDs. If the CDs are $11.00 each, what number of CDs, x, can you buy? Write and solve an inequality. Then explain your answer.
My answer $60.00/$11.00=x CDs
60/11=5.45
X=5
You can buy 5 CDs with $60.00 at $11.00 each.
Is my answer correct?

Your answer is correct, but you didn't write an inequality.

How would I write that out, im really confused.
Answered by Gwen
Maybe X<5
Answered by Ms. Sue
Let c = number of CDs.

11c < 60

c < 60/11

c < 5.45
Answered by Gwen
So you can by 5.45 CDs or do i just round it to 5 CDs?
Answered by Ms. Sue
I don't think you want a half a CD.

Yes. You can buy 5 CDs

That's what the equality states. The number of CDs is less than 5.45
