As the number of pages in a photo book increases, the price of the book also increases. there is an additional shipping charge of 15%. the price of a book can be modeled by the equation below, where p = the price of the book, 20 is the printing charge, 0.5 is the charge per page, and x = the number of pages:

p = (20 + 0.5x) + 0.15(20 + 0.5x)

jennifer wants to purchase a book but only has $62.10 to spend. what is the maximum number of pages she can have in her book?

x = pages

You can just substitute $62.10 to the model of the price

P = (20 + 0.5x) + 0.15 (20 + 0.5x)

68.10 = (20 +0.5x) + 0.15(20+0.5x)

x = 68 pages

therefore the maximum number of pages she can have in her book is 68 pages

The maximum number of pages she can have in her book is 68 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of a book can be modeled by the equation below, where P = the price of the book, 20 is the printing charge, 0.5 is the charge per page, and x = the number of pages:

Jennifer wants to purchase a book but only has $62.10 to spend.

we will put P = 62.10

Solving this;

=>

=>

=>

x = 68

Hence, the maximum number of pages she can have in her book is 68 pages.

i got 10.28 but that rounds up to 10.3
