Which equation will solve the following word problem? Four roommates share the cost of an apartment: rent, electricity, and gas. Rent costs $1200/month and gas costs $50/month. Each roommate pays $345/month. How much is the electric bill per month?


($1200 + $50)/4 = E + $345


($1200 + $50 + $345)/4 = E


($1200 + $50 + E)/4 = $345


($345)4 + E = $1200 + $50

Respuesta :

Given that,

Four roommates share the cost of an apartment: rent, electricity, and gas. Rent costs $1200/month and gas costs $50/month. Each roommate pays $345/month.

To find,

The electric bill per month.

Solution,

Bill of each roommates = $1200+$500+E, E is electricity bill

Total bill = $345/month

Bill of each roommates = 4($1200+$500+E), E is electricity bill

ATQ,

4($1200+$500+E) = $345

So, the correct option is (c).
