6. A sign at the store reads “Birthday Banners $8
A sign at the store reads “Birthday Banners $8. Personalize for $1 per letter.”
Cecilia has 7 letters in her name, and Dowen has 5 letters in his. Figure out how much it will cost to get a personalized birthday banner for each of them.

7. Number of letters in name
Price of banner $8 $1
Number of letters in name = + •
Let y be the price of the banner and x be the number of letters in the name; the equation for the price of a banner is y = 8 + x.
For Cecelia’s banner:
x = 7, y = or y = 15
For Dowen’s banner:
x = 5, y = or y = 13

19. Additional Example 3: Retail Application
A salesman wants to make a 20% profit on everything he sells. The equation for the sales price p is p = 1.2w, where w is wholesale cost.
A. What will be the sales price of a sweater with a wholesale cost of $48?
p = 1.2(48)
The price of the sweater before tax is $48.
p = 57.6
The sweater is $48, and after tax it will cost $57.60, so (48, 57.60) is a solution of the equation.

20. Additional Example 3 Continued
A salesman wants to make a 20% profit on everything he sells. The equation for the sales price p is p = 1.2w, where w is wholesale cost.
B. What will be the sales price of a jacket with a wholesale cost of $85?
p = 1.2(85)
The price of the jacket before tax is $85.
p = 102
The jacket is $85.00, and after tax it will cost $102, so (85, 102) is a solution of the equation.

21. A. How much will a $22 item cost after sales tax?
Try This: Example 3A
In most states, the price of each item is not the total cost. Sales tax must be added. If sales tax is 7.5 percent, the equation for total cost is c = 1.075p, where p is the price before tax.
A. How much will a $22 item cost after sales tax?
c = 1.075(22)
The price of the item before tax is $22.
c = 23.65
After sales tax, the $22 item will cost $23.65, so (22, 23.65) is a solution to the equation.

22. B. How much will a $10 item cost after sales tax?
Try This: Example 3B
In most states, the price of each item is not the total cost. Sales tax must be added. If sales tax is 7.5 percent, the equation for total cost is c = 1.075p, where p is the price before tax.
B. How much will a $10 item cost after sales tax?
c = 1.075(10)
The price of the item before tax is $10.
c = 10.75
After sales tax, the $10 item will cost $10.75, so (10, 10.75) is a solution to the equation.
