Her estimate is lower than her actual cost because her total is 72.87 she is off by 1.72 because she only added 42,17,and 12 and forgot all about adding the cent or the .60,.38,and the .89.
The correct answer would be 8
Since Christian sets aside $60 per month for daily coffee, and McDonalds sells coffee for $ 1, and The Bean Sprout sells a cup of coffee for $3, to create an equation that represents the combinations of coffee options that allow Christian to stay in his budget and provide 2 combinations that use his entire budget, 1 combination that would be under budget, and 1 combination that would be over his budget, the following linear equation must be proposed:
M + BS = 60
2 combinations using the entire budget =
- 15 McDonalds + 15 The Bean Sprout = 15 + 45 = 60
- 30 McDonalds + 10 The Bean Sprout = 30 + 30 = 60
1 combination under budget =
- 15 McDonalds + 10 The Bean Sprout = 15 + 30 = 45
1 combination over budget =
- 30 McDonalds + 30 The Bean Sprout = 30 + 90 = 120
