Renata wins a $20 gift card to an online music site. After Renata purchases 16 songs, the gift card has a remaining balance of $0. Which equation represents the relationship between y, the remaining balance on Renata’s gift card, and x, the number of songs purchased?

4x + 5y = –100
5x + 4y = 80
4x + 5y = 16
5x + 4y = 20

Respuesta :

From reading the problem we see that y = 0 and x = 16.
To find the correct equation, simple plug in the values for x and y for each equation and see which equation is true.

The correct answer is 5x + 4y = 80


5(16) + 4(0) =80
80 + 0 = 80
80 = 80

Answer:

5x + 4y = 80
