Computers R US was selling laptops that had 4GB of memory for $495. You can but additional memory for $97 per GB. If your grandfather gave you $980 to buy a laptop and additional memory, how much memory can u get

Respuesta :

You can get 5GB additional memory and the total memory will be 9GB.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of laptop with 4GB memory = $495

Amount you have = $980

Cost per GB = $97

Let,

x be the additional memory in GBs you can buy.

As you cannot spend more $980, therefore,

Cost of laptop + Additional memory*Price per GB ≤ Amount you can spend

[tex]495 + 97x\leq 980\\97x\leq 980-495\\97x\leq 485[/tex]

Dividing both sides 97

[tex]\frac{97x}{97}\leq \frac{485}{97}\\x\leq 5[/tex]

Therefore, you can buy 5GB more memory.

Total memory = Memory laptop already have + additional memory

Total memory = 4GB + 5GB

Total memory = 9GB

You can get 5GB additional memory and the total memory will be 9GB.
