Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 3x + 5 = 57.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the price of one video game is x. Jamie bought 3 video games so the expression will be:
= 3x
His sister talked him into buying two $1.50 candy bars and a $2.00 drink. The total of this is:
= 1.50 + 1.50 + 2.00
= $5.00
The total amount spent on both the video game and the snacks is $57.50. Equation will therefore be:
3x + 5 = 57.50
First we need to know how much each pen costs. So we take 11.77 and divide it by 11. That gives us 1.07 per pen. So answer choice A has 4 pens for 4.44, so we need to multiply 1.07 x 4. That gives you 4.28, so we know that isn't the correct answer. For option B, we need to multiply 1.07 x 5. That is 5.35, so that also can't be the answer. For C, we need to do 1.07 x 6, and that gives us 6.42. So we know the correct answer is option C.
The 5 is the coefficient...
