Question

10. A band Martha likes just released a new album. A digital music service is selling the 12-song album for $9.96. The service also allows purchase of individual songs off the album, with 3 songs selling for $1.29 and 9 selling for $0.99. Martha likes all of the $1.29 songs and 6 of the $0.99 songs. She is considering buying just those songs or buying the whole album. What is the better deal in terms of price per song? Show your work. *

Answer 1

Answer: Buying just the songs she likes

Explanation:

1.29 x 3 = 3.87 + (0.99 x 6) = 9.81

5.94

Answer 2

The 9 songs selling for 0.99 each are 0.11
The 3 songs selling for 1.29 each are 0.43

6x0.11=0.66 + 1.29= 1.95 in total
