Question

A cable company charges a $25 set up fee and $34.95 each month for basic service. Write an expression to model these charges. Find the costs for 1, 3, and 6 months. Show your work!

Answer 1

First Month (With set up fee) - $59.95

Three Months (With set up fee) - $128.85

Six Months (With set up fee) - $232.70

Explanation:

1. 25 +34.95

3. 25 + 34.95 +34.95 + 34.95

6. 25 +34.95 +34.95 + 34.95+34.95 +34.95 + 34.95

Answer 2

25+ 24.95x= Y

25+ 24.95(1)= Y

25+24.95=49.95

25+ 24.95(3)= Y

25+74.85=99.85

You don't have to do it step by step like the last ones. Just do 74.85 times 2 which is 149.7 plus 25= 174.7

Have a great day!
