Question

manuel has $15 to spend.on apps and music. Apps cost $2 each and songs cost $1 each. If x represents the number of apps purchased and y represents the number of songs purchased, write a linear equation that represents the combination of apps and songs manuel can purchase.

Answer 1

Answer:

2x + y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount with Manuel = $15

Cost of apps = $2

Cost of song = $1

x = number of apps purchased

y = number of songs purchased

Cost of apps × number of apps purchased + Cost of song × number of songs purchased = Total amount with Manuel

2*x + 1*y = 15

2x + y = 15

The linear equation that represents the combination of apps and songs manuel can purchase is 2x + y = 15
