Answer 1

Final Expression:

3.095D + $10

Explanation:

Let's represent the Monthly Rent by "D" dollars

The amount Dave is expected to pay before renting the apartment is the Sum of All the Fees he has been quoted:

Application Fee:

1.5% of 1 month's rent = 0.015D

Credit Application Fee:

$10.00

Security Deposit:

1 Month's rent = D

Last Month's rent:

1 Month's Rent = D

Broker's Fee:

9%

Thus, The algebraic expression that represents the amount Dave is expected to pay before renting the apartment is:

0.015D + $10 + D + D + 1.08D

Simplify Expression:

3.095D + $10

Hence, The final expression is:

Answer: 3.095D + $10
