write an equation that can be used to find the number of games sold for any month
60(x)=g
60 represents the price of a new game
x represents the amount of games
g represents the amount sold
Answer:
\(\text{Number of games sold in a month} = x\times y\)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the equation for number of games sold for any month, we have to make the following assumptions:
Let y be the number of days in a month, which can vary for different months.
Let x be the fixed number of games sold on a particular day.
Then,
\(\text{Number of games sold in a month} = \text{Games sold per day }\times \text{ Number of days in a month}\)
\(\text{Number of games sold in a month} = x\times y\)
Example:
For the month of February, 5 games were sold everyday. Then, number of games sold in February
\(5\times 28 = 140\)
Thus, 140 games were sold in February.
