Question

For school, Georgia bought 6 notebooks and 2 folders. Let n represent the cost of each notebook and f represent the cost of each folder. Write an expression to determine the total cost for the school supplies. Then, calculate the cost if each notebook costs fifty cents and each folder costs two dollars.

Answer 1

Through a bit of algebra, we can write this expression
\[0.5n + 3f\]

we have 6 notebooks (n = 6) and 2 folders (f = 2)

in dollars, we get

0.5(6) + 3(2) = 3 + 6 = 9.00 in dollars

Answer 2

Homw many notebooks and folders did South Carolina buy? That just doesn't seem like enough for a whole State!
