Answer:

Explanation:

The completed table is given below and the equation for the given situation is 15=4a+0.50s.Given that, it costs $0.50 to download an individual song and $4 to download an album.

What is an equation?

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign

Jada has $15 to spend downloading music.Let s be number of songs and a be number of albumsSo an equation for the given situation is 15=4a+0.50s

From table, in row 1

Given number of songs is 6

⇒ 15=4a+3

⇒ 4a=12

⇒ a=3

From table, in row 2

Given number of albums is 1

15=4(1)+0.50s

⇒ 0.50s=11

⇒ s=11/0.50⇒

s=22

From table, in row 3Given number of albums is 3015=4a+0.50(30)⇒ 15-15=4a⇒ a=0

15=4a+0.50(30)

⇒ 15-15=4a

⇒ a=0

Hence, the completed table is given below and the equation for the given situation is 15=4a+0.50s.
