do you have any idea what you would do here?
I am going to guess in (y=29x) 29 would be the dollar amount.
29*x
22*x

Lets give x a number to make this equation, would you like to provide me with a number so I can tell if you are paying attention?

Thanks or trying to help but I already figured it out...I think. I got that he would save 7 dollars. Is that right?

@kathlyn98 Am I right? I used the number one

I am not sure where my response is, so I will write again, lol
27-22=7 yes, but what is your response to how you figured it out?

anonymous · Answer

Yes, I said that I plugged 1 in the formula. Like this y=29*1=29. I already submitted it just waiting for my teacher to grade it. Thanks for your help.
