You want to buy your friends some $50 i-tunes gift cards. You have a $5 off coupon for the total purchase. Write a function to represent the cost of the gifts. What would be the cost of 4 gift cards?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats confusing but lemme think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay please try medals will be given

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x= the price of each gift ok?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4x-5=45 because you want to multiply the number of gifts by how much each gift costs then subtract 5 from that and the total price would be $45

OpenStudy (anonymous):

get it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i get it was that the function you wrote for it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i cant figure it out because its asking a function for the cost of the gifts but not gift cards

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it would be x-5=195 because you dont how many gifts there are and you have the 5 dollar off coupon and your total was 195
