document.write( "To solve this problem, you are going to have to write an equation using what you know.  You know that a car cost $40 per day plus $0.21 per mile.  This total cost can be written as:<BR>\n" );
document.write( "C = 40 + 0.21M (where C = total cost of renting a car, M = miles driven)<BR>\n" );
document.write( "You also know that your total budget is $82.  This means that your total costs have to be less than or equal to $82.  So if you set the cost equation equal to $82, you will find the maximum amount of miles you can travel:<BR>\n" );
document.write( "C = 40 + 0.21M<BR>\n" );

document.write( "42 = 0.21M<BR>\n" );
document.write( "200 = M<BR>\n" );
document.write( "So that means the best mileage you can get for $82 is 200 miles.  So your miles can be less than or equal to 200 and you will be on budget. (I'm sorry I don't understand this last part of your question: The solution is m/m is less than ??)<BR>\n" );
document.write( "Problem 2:<BR>\n" );
document.write( "To solve this problem, you need to write an equality using what you know.  You know that a metal stays solid below 1853.9 degrees fahrenheit:<BR>\n" );
document.write( "M < 1853.9 degrees (M = temperature of the metal)<BR>\n" );
document.write( "Now the question asks for the celsius temperature, so we need to change 1853.9 degrees fahrenheit into celsius using the formula F = (9/5)c + 32:<BR>\n" );
document.write( "F = (9/5)c + 32<BR>\n" );
document.write( "1853.9 = (9/5)c + 32<BR>\n" );
document.write( "1821.9 = (9/5)c<BR>\n" );
document.write( "1012.167 = c<BR>\n" );
document.write( "So 1853.9 degrees F = 1012.2 degrees C.  This means that we can put this into our inequaltiy:<BR>\n" );
document.write( "M < 1853.9 degrees F<BR>\n" );
document.write( "M < 1012.2 degrees C<BR>\n" );
