Question

Gracie is buying new jackets for her dance squad. She will pay $26.50 for each jacket

plus a one-time fee of $15.99 for delivery.
Which equation can be used to find y, the total cost to buy x jackets?

Answer 1

y=26.50x + 15.99

Explanation:

Each jacket costs $26.50 so x is the variable to depict how many jackets she is buying because it does not tell us in the question. There is a one-time fee of $15.99 so that is added on to the total to find the total cost which is y.
