A music website charges x dollars for individual songs and y dollars for an entire album. Person A pays $25.92 to download 6 individual songs and 2 albums. Person B pays $33.93 to download 4 individual songs and 3 albums. How much does it cost to download a song and an album
Amount charged for downloading individual songs = x dollars Amount charged for downloading an entire song album = y dollars Person A: 6x + 2y = 25.92 3x + y = 12.96 y = 12.96 - 3x Person B: 4x + 3y = 33.93 Putting the value of y from the first equation in the second we get x = 0.99 dollars Putting the value of x in the first equation we get y = 12.96 - 3x = 12.96 - 2.97 = 9.99 dollars
