Question

A certain music club charges an annual membership fee of $99, in return, its members will be able to buy and download songs at a very low cost of 10 cents each. If Tyna spent a total of $149.30 including the membership fee, how many songs did she buy?
A) 99+10x=149.30
B) 99-10x=149.30
C) 99-0.1x=149.30
D) 0.1x+99=149.30

Answer 1

Answer:

D). 0.1x+99=149.30

How many songs Tyna Bought:

503 songs

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the membership fee is 99 you don't have to pay for it again

(Until next year that is)

Now it states that every download cost 10 cents or $0.1

So we don't know how many she will buy so we can replace that unknown value with x

So the equation is

0.1x+99=149.30

To solve this you first subtract 99 on both sides:

Which will result in

0.1x=50.3

Divide 0.1 on both sides

So Tyna bought 503 songs

(HOLY THAT IS A LOT OF SONGS)

Hope this Helps!
