Amari went to the mall and spent $47
. He bought one shirt for $26
and he bought 3 pairs of socks. Each pair of socks cost the same amount of money.
PART A
Write an equation that can be used to find the cost of each pair of socks.
Let's assume the cost of each pair of socks is represented by the variable "x". Since Amari bought 3 pairs of socks, the total cost of the socks is 3x. The equation can be written as:
Total cost of socks = Cost per pair of socks * Number of pairs of socks
3x = $47 - $26
Therefore, the equation that can be used to find the cost of each pair of socks is:
3x = $21
write the full equation
3x = 21
If it's right i'll thumbs up it. or smth. wrong :thumbs down"
To find the cost of each pair of socks, we can set up an equation. Let's say the cost of each pair of socks is represented by the variable "x". Since Amari bought 3 pairs of socks, we can multiply the cost of each pair (x) by the number of pairs (3) to find the total cost of the socks. The equation would be:
3x = Total cost of socks
Now we just need to solve for x to find the cost of each pair of socks.
