Question

The start up cost to join etunes music is 7.95 plus 0.95 per song download. 

how do i write a linear equation to find the cost to download s songs??

Answer 1

Answer: 19 songs

Explanation:

First figure out the equation: eTunes = 7.95 + 0.95x

Then, we know that he spent $26 dollars. Plug that in for eTunes:

26=7.95 + 0.95x

Do the subtraction property of equality and subtract 7.95 to both sides:

26- 7.95 = 7.95-7.95 +0.95

After doing the subtraction property of equality, divide 0.95 to both sides with your new "y".

18.05/0.95x= 0.95x/0.95x

After dividing, you shall find the answer to be 19.

He downloaded 19 songs on eTunes.
