The amount of golf balls that can be purchased is unknown so we can place x as the number of balls purchased for 0.8 each. (I bolded some words because it can help to how to set up an equation and where they should go. :D) I hope my explanation is clear enough for you to understand. I also solved the inequality above ^^^! I hope this helps!
