Question

A company charges a flat rate of $25 for their
product but they also charge an additional $3.50
per customization. If the Smith family paid $67
for their gift, how many customizations did they
get? Write and solve an algebraic equation to
find your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

12 customisations.

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 3.50C + 25     where P = total payment and C = the number of customisations.

So if they paid $67:

67 = 3.50C + 25

3.50C = 67 - 25 = 42

C = 42/3.50

C = 12.
