Mercedes can download new songs for $1.39 each. Write an equation to show how many songs she can download for $15.00.

Answer 1

If n is the number of songs, then n x $1.39 would be the download cost for n songs.

If the limit is $15.00, then the equation for the number. of songs she can download would be 15 = 1.39n, solve for n.

You asked for an equation, but it could also be written as an inequality: 15 ≥ 1.39n, where n is positive value..

Answer 2

Let x be the number of songs that can be downloaded.

1.39x ≤ 15
