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
Let's say the number of t-shirts you can buy is represented by the variable "x".
The cost of one t-shirt is $11, and you have a coupon for $6 off. Therefore, the effective cost of one t-shirt after applying the coupon is $11 - $6 = $5.
You have $27 to spend, so the equation representing your situation is:
5x = 27
To find the value of "x", we need to solve this equation for "x":
x = 27 / 5
x = 5.4
However, since you can't buy a fraction of a t-shirt, the solution is not a whole number. Therefore, you cannot buy any t-shirts using your coupon and money, as $27 is not enough to cover the cost after applying the coupon.
