Question

tomas makes a photobook online and sends copies to 4 family members. there is a $6 shipping charge for each photobook. he pays a total of $112. which equation can be used to find the price, x, of one photobook? 4x + 6 = 112, 4(x + 6) = 112, 4x - 6 = 112, 4(x - 6) = 112

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the cost per photobook

Each photobook has a price \( x \) and a shipping charge of $6, so the total cost for one photobook is \( x + 6 \).

Step2: Analyze the total cost for 4 photobooks

Tomas sends 4 photobooks, so the total cost is 4 times the cost of one photobook, which is \( 4(x + 6) \).

Step3: Set up the equation

We know the total amount paid is $112, so the equation is \( 4(x + 6)=112 \).

Answer:

\( 4(x + 6) = 112 \) (the second option: \( 4(x + 6) = 112 \))
