    The price per CD that Drew bought=$11

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Margie's total cost can be expressed as;

    C = (p*n) + t

    where;

    C=total cost

    p=price per unit of CD

    n=number of CD bought

    t=tax on purchase

    In our case;

    C=$61

    p=unknown

    n=5

    t=$6

    replacing;

    61 = (5*p) + 6

    5 p+6=61

    5 p=61-6

    5 p=55

    p=55/5

    p=11

    The price per CD that Drew bought=$11
