EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER

33x

33+x

99+3x

99x+3

Answer 1

Answer:

Total cost= 99 + 2.97x

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed cost= $99

Variable cost= 3% per person

First, we need to calculate the 3% of 99:

Unitary variable cost= 99*0.03= $2.97

Now, we establish the total cost structure:

Total cost= 99 + 2.97x

x= number of people in attendance

Finally, suppose 200 people attend the party:

Total cost= 99 + 2.97*200

Total cost= $693

Answer 2

$3 per person who attends

To Find;

Which expression can Jess use to figure out the total amount of money she owes at the end of the party?

Solve;

Since, we don't know the total amount of money she owes at the end of the party.  Total amount of money she owes at the end of the party = x

Thus, Party Costs ($99) plus per person who attends($3)  and Total amount of money she owes at end of party (x)

As well as,

[A] 33x, [B] 33 + x, and [D] 99x+3 didn't clearly or completely shows  the party's situation. Hence, the Best Answer is [C] 99+3x
