Word problems involving two-step equations You are buying a drum set that costs $495. The music store lets you make a down payment. You can pay the remaining cost in three equal monthly payments with no interest charged. You make a down payment of $150. How much is each monthly payment? Set up your equation: 150 + 3p = 495 Solve: 150 + 3p = 495 -150 -150 3p = 345 3 3 p = 115 • What is the important information? • Costs $495 • Down payment of $150 • I have 3 months to pay remaining amount ($495 - $150)
