Dexter has a gift card for $20.00 to an electronics store. He also has a coupon for 25% off his entire purchase, so he will be paying 75% of the total cost. He plans to buy a video game for $10.00 and batteries for $2.00. Select the equation that represents how much money will be left on his gift card after his purchases if x represents his remaining balance. What is the equation that represents his remaining balance?

The linear equation that represent the situation is

The remaining balance on his gift card is $11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the remaining balance.

We know that the linear equation that represent the situation is equal to

Solve

x=$11

there are no short passages to look at

option 3 . (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
