Kevin has $25. MP3 downloads cost $0.75 each. How many songs can he download and still have $13 left to spend? Write an inequality that represent Kevin’s situation.

you need to subtract first
25-10=15
Then you divide it by the downloads cost which is 0.75
it would be 20
The answer is 20 MP3. He can by 20 and have 10 dollar left

Hope that helps!

Hi there!

Inequality:
25 - 0.75x <= 13

Since x is the amount of MP3 downloads he can buy and each CD costs 0.75 dollars, and since the total price spent needs to be less than 13 dollars and the total amount of money he has is 25 dollars, this is the answer.

Hope this helps!
