Astore sells 12-packs of ballpoint pens for $1.09 each and composition books for $2.79 each. cindy buys m packs of ballpoint pens and n composition books. the store offers a 5% discount for every 50th customer who makes a purchase. if cindy gets the 5% discount, which expression will represent cindy’s bill?

step by step

12 pack of pens for $1.09

m packs =  1.09*m = 1.09m

1 composition book = $2.79

n composition books = 2.79*n = 2.79n

Total cost = (1.09m + 2.79n)

Since there is a discount of 5%, the net price would be: 100% - 5% = 95%

Net Cost = 0.95*(1.09m + 2.79n)

Cindy's bill =    $ 0.95*(1.09m + 2.79n)

days of the week
