Answer:
(A)
- P(60) = 78.98
- When the bookstore spends $60 on a textbook, the student pays $78.98
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
P(x) = 1.053(x+0.25x)
P(60) = 1.053(60+0.25*60)
=1.053(60+15)
=1.053(75)
P(60)=$78.98
Since x is the cost from the publisher, when the bookstore spends $60 on a textbook, the student pays $78.98.

Answer: 0.75 (choice B)
=============================================
Explanation:
One way to set up the equation is to think of it like this
vertical/horizontal = vertical/horizontal
So we could say
(3.5)/(28) = x/6
Cross multiply and solve for x
3.5*6 = 28*x
21 = 28x
x = 21/28
x = (3*7)/(4*7)
x = 3/4 in fraction form
x = 0.75 in decimal form
-------------
Another possible set up equation is
28/6 = (3.5)/x
in this case I divided the horizontal sides together (28 and 6) and the vertical sides divide to form their own separate fraction as well.
Solving that equation should lead you to x = 3/4 = 0.75
Other equations are possible.
