Question

At a popular arcade, Lana bought a game card worth 135 game credits. Lana and a friend used the card to play Flappy Fish, a game that costs 4 credits per game. They each played the game 7 times. Which equations could represent n, the number of credits remaining on the card? Select all that apply.

Answer 1

N=135-4(14). The number of coins remaining would be the initial amount (135) minus the amount used on the game. You could simply find the product of 4 and 14 since the game costs 4 coins per game and they each played 7 times. After that step is done...the equation could be further broken down to N=135-56. Getting the answer of N= 79 coins remaining. Another equation could be N=135-4x. The x in this case would represent how many times the game was played. Then, you could put the 14 in because they each played 7 times. I hope this helps. Next time, include the answer that were given. I was unsure about the “select all that apply” as the there were no choices given.
