Let
x--------> the number of friends
y-------->Jonah's costs
we know that
[tex]y=11+\frac{15}{x}[/tex]
where
The number of friends is -----------------------> [tex]x[/tex]
Cost of movie ticket is---------------------------> [tex]\$11[/tex]
Total cost of popcorn is-------------------------> [tex]\$15[/tex]
Jonah's portion of popcorn cost------------> [tex]\frac{\$15}{x}[/tex]
Answer:
Cost of movie ticket----- 1
Total cost of popcorn----- 15
Jonah's portion of popcorn cost------ 15/x
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of the Jonah's costs are represented by the expression :
11+15\x
Now we have to match the expression to the explanation that they denote.
Let x be the number of friends among whom the pop-corn cost has to splitted.
As the total cost of popcorn is: 15
Hence, Jonah's portion of pop-corn is: 15/x
Also, he bought a movie ticket for 11.
Hence, the total cost that is paid by Jonah is: 11+15/x
