Question

6. Homer and Bart plan to buy one computer for $499.00 strictly for gam purposes. Games cost $49.99 each. Part A: Define each variable and write an algebraic expression to describe how much they will spend before sales tax, based purchasing the computer and the number of games.

Answer 1

Answer:

The required algebraic expression is $y=499.00+49.99x$ where x is the number of games and y is the total cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the cost price of computer is $499.00

Let x represents the number of games Homer and Bart bought and y is the total purchasing cost of the computer (before sales tax).

It is given that the cost of each game is 49.99.

If they bought x games, then the total cost will be:

$y=499.00+49.99x$

Therefore, the algebraic expression is $y=499.00+49.99x$ where x is the number of games they bought and y be the total cost.

Answer 2

Answer:

T= 499.00 + 49.99g

Step-by-step explanation:

T=is total cost

G=is number of games
