Jung-Soon has $25 to spend on prizes for a game at the school fair. Lip balm costs $1.25 each, and mini-notebooks cost $1.50 each. Write a linear equation that can be used to determine how many of
each prize she can buy.

1.25x + 1.5y=25

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of lip balms that can be bought be x and the notebooks be y then their total cost is 1.25x + 1.5y. The total $25 there for the equation becomes 1.25x + 1.5y=25.

wholesale price is the initial price before markup. retail price comes after the markup.

a price of 8 bucks that's marked up by 100%   is

formula: initial price + (percent markup in fraction/decimal)(initial price)

8+(1)(8)

8+8

16

retail price is $16.
