Let 'x' represent the number of cassettes and let 'y' represent the number of CD's bought

$47 ≤ 5x + 10y

Answer:

5x + 10y ≤ 47

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, x represent the number of tapes and y the number of CDs.

Since, Each cassette tape costs $5 and each CD costs $10.

Thus, the total cost x taps and y CD's = 5x + 10y

Also, we have $ 47 to spend,

Thus, Total cost can not be exceed to $ 47,

⇒ 5x + 10y ≤ 47

Which is the required inequality that represents this situation.
