Answer 1

The total cost to place a 68-word advertisement on the radio is 148 naira, calculated by adding the flat rate for the first 10 words (32 naira) to the cost of the additional 58 words (116 naira).

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the cost of placing a 68-word advertisement on the radio, we need to account for the first 10 words and every additional word. The radio station charges 32 naira for the first 10 words. For the remaining 58 words (68 total words - 10 initial words), the station charges 2 naira per word.

Here's the step-by-step calculation:

• Calculate the cost of the first 10 words: 32 naira (flat rate).
• Calculate the cost of the additional words: 58 words × 2 naira/word = 116 naira.
• Add the two amounts together: 32 naira + 116 naira = 148 naira.

Therefore, the total cost to place a 68-word advertisement on the radio is 148 naira.

Answer 2

Cost for 68 words = 148 naira

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of first ten words = 32 naira

Cost of additional words = 2 naira per word

Let,

x be the number of additional words.

y be the total cost

y = 2x + 32

We have to find the cost for 68 words.

The cost of first 10 words will be 32 naira.

Additional words = 68 - 10 = 58 words

Putting x = 58 in the equation

y = 2(58) + 32

y = 116 + 32

y = 148

Hence,

Cost for 68 words = 148 naira
