Dwayne has $80 to spend on video games. used video games cost $10 each, and new video games cost $20 each. what equation in standard form determines the number x of used video games and the number y of new video games he can buy?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Dwayne has $80 to spend on video games.

Used video games cost $10 each, and new video games cost $20 each.

To Find :  Standard form determines the number x of used video games and the number y of new video games he can buy.

Solution :

We are given that :

x denotes the number of used video games .

y denotes the no. of new video games.

The standard form of equation is :

---(A)

Now cost of 1 used video game is $10

So, cost of x used video games is $10x

Now cost of 1 new video game is $20

So, cost of y new video games is $20y

Since we are given that Dwayne has $80 to spend on video games.

⇒

Comparing this with standard form(A) we can see that it is in the standard form of equation .

Hence , equation in standard form  determines the number x of used video games and the number y of new video games he can buy :
