Write an equation and solve to find the solution to the following problem.
You have $27 to spend at the mall and a coupon for $6 off at your favorite store. A t-shirt costs $11. How many t-shirts can you buy using your coupon and money?

4 shirts
Let x be the number of t-shirts you can buy.
The cost of one t-shirt after using the coupon is $11 - $6 = $5.
The total cost of x t-shirts is 5x.
The equation is 5x = 27.
To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by 5:
x = 27/5 = 5.4.
Since you cannot buy a fraction of a t-shirt, the solution is that you can buy 5 shirts.
what is the answer
The answer is 5 shirts.
it is not
Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's solve the problem correctly.
You have $27 to spend at the mall and a coupon for $6 off at your favorite store. A t-shirt costs $11.
Let x be the number of t-shirts you can buy.
After using the coupon, the cost of one t-shirt is $11 - $6 = $5.
The total cost of x t-shirts is 5x.
We want to find the maximum value of x that satisfies the inequality 5x ≤ 27.
Dividing both sides of the inequality by 5, we have:
x ≤ 27/5.
The maximum value of x that is less than or equal to 27/5 is 5.
Therefore, you can buy a maximum of 5 t-shirts with your coupon and money.
