x ≤ 5
Answer:
5 CDs

Answer:

number of CDs can you buy is 5 or less than 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, x represents the number of CDs buy.

As per the statement:

If the CDs are $11.99 each

⇒Cost of x CDs  = 11.99x

It is also given that:

You have $59.95 in your wallet and want to buy some new CDs

⇒\(11.99x \leq 59.95\)

We get an inequality:

\(11.99x \leq 59.95\)

Solve for x:

Divide both sides by 11.99 we have;

\(x \leq \frac{59.95}{11.99} = 5\)

\(x \leq 5\)

Therefore, number of CDs can you buy is : \(x \leq 5\)
