Home Station had a promotion offering $4 off on a gallon of house paint. Write an equation for the cost,C,of 15 gallons paint in terms of the regular price,p.

Answer 1

Answer:

Therefore the required equation is C = $ 15p - 60

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the price per gallon of paint  = $p

ii) promotion offering price per gallon = $(p-4)

iii) cost of 15 gallons at the rate of promotion offering, C = 15(p - 4) = 15p - 60

Therefore the required equation is C = $ 15p - 60
