Lin got a $50 gift card to an online music store. She uses the gift card to buy an album for $9.99.

She also wants to use the gift card to buy some songs. Each song costs $1.29.

Write and solve an inequality to describe this situation. Explain what your answer means in the context of the problem and give a realistic expectation of how many songs Lin can buy.

 9.99 + 1.29n ≤ 50

n ≤ 31.02

At most, Lin can buy 31 songs because you can not buy part of a song.
