Answer 1

Answer:

A = (cost per cup of coffee * number of cups) + balance

$15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Cost per cup of coffee = $1.50

Number of cups purchased = 4

Balance on card = $9

Let A = worth of gift card

A = (cost per cup of coffee * number of cups) + balance

A = (1.50 * 4) + 9

A = 6 + 9

A = $15
