Explanation:

The general equation would be:

#P=14.95c+39.99v#

Where,

  • #c# is the number of CD's bought
  • #v# is the number of video games bought
  • #P# is the total price

Since you did not give any specific amounts of Cd's or video games
bought I cannot give you a price. However if you wanted to know, you just have to pick numbers for #c# and #v# and just add.

For example:

Say I bought 3 CD's and #2# video games

So in this case #c=3# and #v=2#

We'll substitute these values into the equation and fins the total price:

#P=14.95(3)+39.99(2)#

#P=44.85+79.98#

#P=124.83#

So the the total cost of #3# CD's and #2# video games is #$124.83#
