You have $7 and earn $0.25 for each cup of orange juice you sell. Write an equation in two variables that represents the total amount A (in dollars) you have after selling j cups of orange juice.

The equation is A = 0.25j + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to write an equation that shows the total amount of money someone has after selling a particular amount of orange juice.

To solve this question, we can just consider the total number of orange glasses cups sold. Firstly , let’s write the revenue generated from the sales.

She sells j cups A $0.25 per cup. The total amount of money made here is equal to 0.25j.

When we add this to the initial $7, we have the final equation.

0.25j + 7

The amount A in dollars is equal to this.

A = 0.25j + 7
