Question

*help on this asap would be greatly appreciated :)*
You own a hobby store and you have to purchase some model cars. The sports cars cost $4 more than the classic cars. You buy 15 classic cars and 12 sports
cars. You spend a total of $196.50. A) define a variable. B) create an equation to represent the situation. C) solve for your variable

Answer 1

x is how much classic cars => sport car costs = x+4
total = 196.5=15x+12(x+4)
196.5=15x+12x+24
27x=196.5-24
x=172.5/27=6.39
