Question

Alonso signed up for a streaming music service that costs $8 per month. The service
allows Alonso to listen to unlimited music, but if he wants to download songs for
offline listening, the service charges $0.50 per song. How much total money would
Alonso have to pay in a month in which he downloaded 40 songs? How much would
he have to pay if he downloaded s songs?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.5s + 8 is the cost if he downloaded s songs

$28 is the cost for downloading 40 songs

Step-by-step explanation:

First, create an equation to represent the cost where s is the number of songs

Since it is 0.50 per song, the cost per song can be represented by 0.5s. Then, add 8 to this in the equation to represent the monthly fee.

Put this together:

0.5s + 8 is the cost if he downloaded s songs

Plug in 40 as s to find the cost for 40 songs downloaded:

0.5s + 8

0.5(40) + 8

20 + 8

= 28

So, the cost for downloading 40 songs is $28

Answer 2

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

40 downloaded songs times .50 = 20 dollars plus the 8 dollars he pay every mouth so it's 28 dollars that mouth where he downloaded 40 songs.

y = s x .50 + 8
