Answer 1

Answer:

($3.19x(4)+1.20y+1.20z$) *0.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Cleo buys x packs of markers, y wide-ruled notebooks, and z college-ruled notebooks.

All spiral-bound notebooks, whether wide-ruled or college-ruled, sell for $1.20 each. This gives expressions : 1.20y and 1.20z

A store sells four-packs of permanent markers in assorted colors for $3.19 per pack. Cleo buys x packs of markers so expression becomes :

$3.19x(4)$ (3.19 per pack)

The combined expression becomes:

$3.19x(4)+1.20y+1.20z$

The store charges a 6% sales tax on Cleo’s total bill. So, expression becomes:

($3.19x(4)+1.20y+1.20z$) *0.06

Answer 2
