## torii897 one year ago Jose bought a wallet for $19.95 and y hats for$5.99 each. Which of the following expressions shows the total amount of money he spent? A: 19.95y + 5.99y B:19.95y + 5.99 C:19.95 + 5.99y D:19.95 + 5.99 + y

1. Mehek14

which one do you think it is?

2. Mehek14

@torii897 ?

3. torii897

D?

4. Mehek14

no

5. Mehek14

each hat (y) costs 5.99 so to find how much you pay for y number of hats, you would multiply 5.99y = 5.99 * y

6. Mehek14

so which one would it be?

7. Mehek14

8. torii897

I don't understand this its hard

ok look at what I said $$\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}$$ @Mehek14 each hat (y) costs 5.99 so to find how much you pay for y number of hats, you would multiply 5.99y = 5.99 * y $$\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}$$

15. Mehek14

so part of your problem has 5.99y

16. Mehek14

and that person only buys 1 wallet for 19.95

17. Mehek14

C:19.95 + 5.99y
