b. The concession stand ran a special and sold the hot dogs for $1 off the regular price and marked down the cans
of pop 50 cents. Write a new equation to represent the amount Truman would spend if he bought 3 hot dogs
and 5 cans of pop.

Respuesta :

Answer:

3(x-1)+5(y-0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We dont know what the hot dog is worth and what the can of pop is worth, so lets say that a hot dog is x and 1 can of pop is y. the special was that the hot dogs were $1 of and the cans of pop were $0.50($0.5) off, so 1 hot dog is x-1 and 1 can of pop is y-0.5 Truman bought 3 hot dogs and 5 cans of pop, so the new equation would be 3*(x-1)+5(y-0.5)
