The local Humane Society is restocking on cat food to prepare for kitten season . Very young kittens need kitter formula which coast $3.99 per bottle . Older kittens need wet cat food which cost $1.50 per can

PART A) write and algebraic expression to describe how much the humane society will sownd on kitten supplies . Identify the parts of the expression by underlining the coefficient(s), circling the constant(s) , and drawing a box around the variables(s) .

PART B) how much money (before tax) will the humane society spwnd if they buy 30 bottels of kiyten formula and 120 cans of wet food ?

PART C) if you add 7% sales tax to the purchase of thw bottles of kitten formula and cans of wet cat food , how would the algebraic expression used in parts A and B change

Respuesta :

Part A.) Let z be the variable denoted for the total cost of all kitten supplies. Then, let x be the number of bottles and let y be the number of cans. The equation would be:

z = 3.99x + 1.50y
The coefficients are 1 for z, 3.99 for x and 1.50 for y.
There are no constants.
The variables are z, x and y.

Part B.) Substitute x=30 and y=120 to the equation in part A to determine z.

z = 3.99(30) + 1.50(120)
z = $299.7

Part C.

Sales tax would be 7% of the total cost. This would be added as a constant. The expression would be:

z = (3.99x + 1.50y)(1+0.07)

Substituting x=30 and y=120,
z = (3.99*30 + 1.50*120)(1+0.07)
z = $320.679

Answer:

The other person really should get brainliest.

I've trying to find this answer so long bc people are not putting in complete questions or answers.

Pls give that person brainliest. He/she saved my life.
