Question

Hanna shops for socks that cost $2.99 for each pair and blouses that cost $12.99 each. Let x represent the number of pairs of socks purchased, and let y represent the number of blouses purchased. Which equation models the purchases she made with $43.92?

Answer 1

Let x represent the number of pairs of socks purchased,
and let y represent the number of blouses purchased.
socks that cost $2.99 for each pair
and blouses that cost $12.99 each

equation
2.99x + 12.99y = 43.92

Answer 2

Answer:

$2.99x+12.99y=43.92$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hanna shops for socks that cost $2.99 for each pair.

And blouses that cost $12.99 each.

Let x represent the number of pairs of socks purchased.

Let y represent the number of blouses purchased.

So, the cost for x socks will be $2.99x$

And cost of y blouses will be $12.99y$

Total amount spent by Hanna = $43.92

So, the equation that will model this situation will be:

$2.99x+12.99y=43.92$
