Given the statement:

Tiana received three $25 gift cards for her birthday. She wants to buy a new blue-ray player with the gift cards.

Let b represent an expression that will show the amount of money she has left after she buys the blu-ray.

Solution:

In order to determine the equation, we simply needed to put the values in a representation.

Let x = number of gift cards

y = cost of blue-ray player

b = amount of money she has left after buying.

b = 3x - y

Final answer:

b = 3x - y
