Abbey receives a $40 gift card for downloading music and wants to determine how many songs she can purchase. Each downloaded song costs $2.89 a. Let m represents the number of songs downloaded. Write an inequality that represents this given situation? b. What is the maximum number of songs Abbey can download?

A. $2.89(m)=$40

B. 13 songs

Step-by-step explanation:

$2.89(m)=$40

m=$40/$2.89

m=13.84

She can download a maximum of 13 songs

Check:

$2.89 (13 songs)=$37.57

$40-$37.57=$2.43 left on her gift card

m=13.84, check that 0.84 of the cost of a song is left over 0.84*$2.89=$2.43

13 songs

Step-by-step explanation:

40 divided by 2.89 is 13.84. DO NOT ROUND TO 14

So its a maximum of 13 songs, otherwise it will cost 40.46 for 14 songs
