Answer 1

Given :

Ms. Liu has $60 to buy candy and soda at the movies theatre for her family.

Candy cost $6 per box and soda cost $4 per cup.

To Find :

Write an algebraic expression that can be used to find the amount of money ms. Liu will have left if she buys a number of boxes of candy (c) and cups of soda (s).

Solution :

Let, number of candy and soda are c and s.

So, their price is :

Price = 6c + 4s

Amount left = 60 - ( 6c + 4s )

Amount left = 60 - 6c -4s

Hence, this is the required solution.
