A store sells new video games for $25 each. Used video games sell for $10 each. Jacob is buying 3 new video games and x used video games. Which equation can be used to find y, the total price Jacob must pay in dollars?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]y = 75 + 10x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

New Video Games

[tex]Cost = \$25[/tex]

[tex]Number = 3[/tex]

Used Video Games

[tex]Cost = \$10[/tex]

[tex]Number = x[/tex]

Required

Determine the amount spent (y)

First, we need to determine the total spent on new games

1 new game = $25

3 new games will be: 3 * $25

Next, we determine the total spent on old games

1 used game = $10

x used games will be: x * $10

So, total amount y, is:

[tex]y = 3 * 25 + x * 10[/tex]

[tex]y = 75 + 10x[/tex]
