Question?
Latavia purchased adult and child tickets for the fall festival. Tickets cost $14.88 for each adult and $8.88 for each child. Let x represent the number of adult tickets purchased and y represent the number of child tickets purchased. Write an expression to represent the total cost of the tickets Latavia purchased. ($14.88 + $8.88)(x + y) ($14.88 - $8.88)(x + y) $14.88y + $8.88x $14.88x + $8.88y
It's so similar to your previous question! :O Why don't you try doing it first?
can you explain it one more time please
Ticket for adult cost $14.88 each and there are x adults so money spent on adult tickets = 14.88 \(\times x\)
d?
Corect
theres no multiple choice for this one.. so just explain it :) Emerson purchased a game that was on sale for 18% off. The sales tax in his county is 8%. Let y represent the original price of the game. Write an expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the game.
brb

okay.. theres no multiple choice for this one.. so just explain the answer and the steps to how you got the answer please :) Emerson purchased a game that was on sale for 18% off. The sales tax in his county is 8%. Let y represent the original price of the game. Write an expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the game.
First tell me if sales tax counted on cost price or discounted price?
counted
Whenever a item is purchased on sale then tax is counted on discounted price, ok?
oh okay
one min
kk
Ok, so discount is 18%, so the new price will become y-18% of y
is that the first step
ok continue...

@Abhisar
OOps..sorry. Finally you would have to add 8% to the calculated amount and that would be your final cost.
so theres only 2 steps?
@Abhisar whats the fully completed answer with steps included?
