Question

Tyler wants to use $300 he has saved to buy a new guitar and join a music club. The guitar costs $140. The music club has a $25 membership fee, and for $11.95 per month, members can download 30 songs. Tyler can afford the music club membership for____ months, after which he will have_____ left.​

Answer 1

Answer:

11 months ; $3.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount saved = $300

Cost of guitar = $140

Membership fee = $25

Monthly fee = $11.95

For how manyonths can Tyler afford the membership :

The one time fee = (membership fee + cost of guitar)

= $140 + $25 = $165

Amount left = $300 - $165

Amount left = $135

Number of monthly fee the balance can afford :

Amount left / monthly fee

= $135 / $11.95

= 11.29

Hence, the number of months he can pay for is 11 months

Amount left = $135 - ($11.95 * 11 months)

$135 - $131.45

= $3.55
